Broadhead sharpeners
*******I will give a review once the product has arrived*******
Has anyone tried one of these yet?
I had one shipped to me yesterday so I can see for myself if a butter knife can be sharpened to a razor edge
The Broadhead Pro, made by Redi-Edge, is undoubtedly the best and easiest to use broadhead sharpener because it not only sharpens straight edged broadheads but also concave, convex, multi-bladed, serrated,

…and it’s the best knife sharpener you can own. TruAngle files, Lanski's, Spiderco's, Archers Edge, ceramic sticks, etc..... you name it. They all work, but are limited in what type of head they can sharpen, are heavy (the Broadhead Pro only weighs 1 oz.), bulky, require set-up and are often hard to use.
The Broadhead Pro is designed to take the guesswork out of sharpening and insure the same sharp edge every time you use it. Simply place the Broadhead Pro flat side down on any firm surface and draw the broadhead through it. Because the microcarbon carbide sharpening blades (92.6 grade) are harder than any broadhead steel, they will literally "shave" steel off the broadhead until a perfect 20-degree shoulder is formed. The broadhead ferrule doesn’t get in the way, like it does with flat files, so you’ll always maintain that perfect angle, whether sharpening for the first time or putting an edge back on. And Broadhead Pro will never destroy your broadheads temper, unlike heat-generating, grinding-wheel type sharpeners.
Like your broadhead blades honed and polished to a “scary” edge? The Broadhead Pro features a hardened ceramic honing surface chemically bonded to its anodized aluminum handle (C65 on the Rockwell Hardness Scale). Use it like a whetstone - - it won’t wear off. The rounded edges of the body will sharpen serrated blades. And check out the bottom edge - there’s a V-groove for sharpening fishing hooks. The Broadhead Pro comes with a Lifetime Warranty* and a spare set of sharpening blades. Simply unbolt and reverse the blades. Replacement blades are also available making it a lifetime tool.
EasyEd’s note: When doing bowhunting trade shows, such as the Eastern Traditional Bowhunters Rendezvous in PA, I often demonstrate how easy it is to get a “scary” edge on a blade. Most people are skeptical at first until they see me sharpen everything from a Howard Hill to a Wensel Woodsman. However, the clincher is my demonstration of sharpening a butter knife to a razor edge. If a Butter Knife can be sharpened to shave hair off my forearm imagine how easy it is to get a broadhead sharp.
