The sharpness meter is going to be my next purchase. It is remarkable how much you can improve upon the factory edge. Under 100 is somewhere in the "wicked" to "scary" sharp range. Thank you for developing the guides.
Just an FYI, Sevrs use their o-ring to hold blades in. About 5-7 times of sharpening you'll have to take a small file to cut that grove back in. I had one deploy mid air on a penetration test, found the o-ring and it was sliced in half.
Just ordered this guide the fixed blade guide and 5 diamond plates. I also have the 344 and tooth of the arrow style sharpener and boy they’ll put an edge on a head. 4 hunters in the family so a sharpener for everyone.
Sharpened 2 of the 4 I have working on the third. Probably my least favorite to sharpen out of the 3 I do. The 344 for 3 blade heads is my favorite tooth of the arrow sharpener is second and these r last. But they probably get the sharpest.
How do the o rings hold up once the factory notch is gone? I think I'm gonna give these broadheads a rip this year. I like that they offer replacement parts( o rings, blades). Lots of mechanical broadheads are one and dones and there's not much value in that. How's the edge retention of the ferrule? I haven't seen or heard what grade of titanium they're using.
I was wondering the exact same thing, should you somehow deepen the notch? ...and if the notch is too sharp, would it prematurely cut the rubber band in flight? ...and from what I understand, Sevr uses Grade 5 Titanium.
I’m a little late to the party here but I use the grey guide on all my replacement blades for these and the magnus black hornets. Still a wicked edge and much stronger
My new sever 2.0 150gr were dull out of the box. It won't even shave the hair on your arm. USPS notified me your stay sharp guide was delivered so fingers crossed my blades will be sharp tonight
Hey Ron, I can't seem to get these as sharp as I'd like, and I continually sharpen only the outer most edge of the cutting surface. I've tried different distances out from the guide and it isn't changing. What am I doing wrong?
If the blade moves in the jaws, that means you are applying too much down pressure while rolling the guide. The wight of your hand is almost too mush force. Light pressure and more strokes. Dont push down hard.
@@innovativeoutdoorsman5067 I know this and I own and I own all 3 of your jigs, this is the first time using this jig though and it definetly doesn't even hold it snug with my sevr 1.5 blades. I also use your diamond stones and have no issues with other blades.
