Well I have been trying to pick up the Slick Tricks but no one carries them around here....I wanted to get a new head that I can easily go to the store and buy in a pinch....picked up the G5's at Gander Mountain and shot them this morning after re-nocking all of my arrows.
They flew extremely well time and time again. They are expensive but they sure moved fast and were on the target faster than I can remember any other fixed head I have shot! And they were quiet......
they sell a montec diamond stone sharpener that supposedly works pretty well on them. I sharpen my strikers with the G5 sportsmans stick, and cant complain. It does the trick.

You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is 'never try'
only problem is they come out of the package about as sharp as a butter knife. Takes some work to get an decent edge on them.
I've heard people have problems with this before, however, after doing a little digging a found that it's merely the way they are made that makes them appear to be less than razor sharp. That being said, you're not going to have any problems with their sharpness

misconception imo. a blade with a 60 degree angle on it wont feel razor sharp to the touch, but is plenty sharp when it comes to cutting. put a 30 degree angle on that blade, and the edge wont hold near as long but will feel sharp enough to cut you by looking at it. the montec is designed for a 60 degree angle put on it. the edge will hold its sharpness much longer this way.
