G'day,
I'm trying to give a few broadheads a little bit of a sharpen...
Problem is that when I do, the blades seem to come out blunter than before.
I've read the tutorials on it on this site, but its not working for some reason.
The heads are Bear "bruin" 140grain 4 blade.
There doesnt seem to be much in the way of substantial metal on them, so I think maybe they are just crappy single-use blades not meant to be sharpened?
They were reasonably sharp out of the packet but just wanted to touch them up a little before use.
I'm using a cheapish sharpening stone from a camping store, but it has worked on the knife I just sharpened so I'm not sure if it is that?
What do you all think?
