Default RE: Honest question from a happy Rage user....


ORIGINAL: Matt/TN

Why in the world don't they sharpen the tips of these blasted things? I don't understand why they wouldn't [&:] You would think, it would improve penetration?
I KNOW it can't be helping ANYTHING with it being dull. If anything, it's impeding pentration.

Like I said, I like the Rage's, I've 2 deer with them in two years, and have been thouroughly pleased.

Opinions? Has anyone sharpened them with success? If so, how?

That was the second or third thing I noticed about them when I bought them. Haven't even shot one yet, but that was the first improvement I made on mine was to sharpen up that butterknife blade out front.

I put it in the lansky very carefully and used the super fine stone on 30 degrees. Probably just made a burr edge, but its enough to shave hair after 10 minutes work and thats a hullva lot better than it was.
