I use a wedge and clamp to get the proper angle if I even bother with sharpening the slicks. Replacement blades are relatively cheap for them. While the tricks are scary sharp and somewhat tough, they do get nicked up on rib bones. I do run the ferrule tip across a honing stone after a hit. And I have several practice blades for tuning and getting ready. So resharpening Trick blades really isn't much of a concern for me. Just too cheap to buy super sharp out of the pack replacements.

Where are you getting them so cheap? The lowest price I can find replacement blades for is about $2.5 per blade or $5 per broadhead. For the super tiny piece of metal one is getting, that is a very high price. $15 per 3 pack of blades (to make 3 new broadheads) is not very low. If you know a low price source, do tell.
