I use a lansky sharpener. I use diamond stones for tough knives that are hard to sharpen, and just a regular fine stone for broadheads.

Lansky is a waste of money compared to them.

I bought 28 Thunderhead 160's on EBAY with 100 or so extra dull blades.

Nothing sharpens those - any Lansky/Smith type just doesn't hit the angles perfectly and consistantly.

The KME does - its designed for broadheads, and replacement blades, the others are designed for knives.

i like the Arkansas Wetstones.

i use(what i call)a Med grit stone (sometimes)depending of how bad of shape the knife is...for rough work.(i like to go not coarse enuff rather than too coarse....takes a little more time tho)

then usuallyi use 2 different steels for knifes, one has a little grit to it.... the other is super fine(hone),

i prefer Beavertail style steels....

by hand....go slow, use asome presure at first....
then hone with light pressure on your super fine...i like to sharpen mine under running water(sink)
also if you have a wet stone make sure its wet.....if its an oil stone make sure you use oil

you dont need all that fancy stuff....i can get mine razor/shaving sharp in a few minutes....it just takes a little practice......GO SLOW...feel your angle...

again it takes practice...but once you get it...its easy....i know guys that nomatter how hard they try they can never get a good edge on a blade.....

broadheads are the same just a little trickyer...practice on your knives first.
