Default Sharpening Montec G5' s

What is the best way to sharpen these broadheads to get them to shave hair.
Does anyone have any suggestions (stones, paperwheels) and what techniques do you use.

I have had excellent results sharpening my G5' s with a CROCKSTICKS sharpener. I bought my crockstick at a Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation about 14 years ago, but I did see some in Academy Sports the other day.

Did a quick search and found Crocksticks on the net. Lansky is the company.

These are absolutely is the BEST sharpener I have ever owned. I can sharpen just about any knife, blade, broadheads, etc. to hair shaving sharpness in seconds with these.

Aren' t the montecs supposed to be able to be sharpened by just " pushing" them on a whetstone?
Is that the wrong edge angle for optimum sharpness or something?

No, you can definitely just use a stone and ' place-and-push' . They are designed to be sharpened that way like Snuffers or Wensel Woodsmans. But I have no doubt other methods will work though.
