This ENTIRE group of misfits is awesome... I could literally sit in a corner and drink a beer or 4, and just enjoy the company of some super people
I prevent rust with scent free chap stick. So far it has worked very well... and its super cheap
This is super nit-picky, but Dr. Ashby once mentioned vaseline and chapstick act as coagulants.
But, I've always done the same, basically, so I'm slightly torn.
Just apply light oil no way in hell a deer is picking up light oil over anything your clothes or skin giving off
Nope PB blaster then lock it in with some Turtle Wax. That somebit will slip straight through a shoulder socket like warm butter.
I use marvel mystery oil. Just drop them in and wipe them off before they go in your quiver. Stay razor sharp
Bees wax 👌🏽
I bought one of these a few months ago after seeing the Ranch Fairy’s video. My single bevel grizzly’s have never been better. Thanks fellas for the updated video. Great stuff
I love my single bevel grizzlys! Glad that the work sharp works well with them.
Worksharp has really been killing it the past year
I bought one of these sharpeners a year or so ago, i watched the first video Troy did on it and was instantly sold. I haven't used oil or water to clean the stones, I stumbled upon using a pencil eraser to clean the stones, it works awesome! especially on the ceramic. I think whatever method you choose the keep the stones "unclogged" will definitely work but the eraser works for me and i just wanted to share this with everyone
I've used food grade silicone on my iron wills for keeping the rust at bay and it has worked well
Watching this collaboration grow between THP/RF and all the knowledge that has come out of it is incredible.
Ive been using worksharp on my broadheads and knives for 2 years. Two words. Game changer. Great video
I bought a Work Sharp a couple of years ago for my knives and it's been amazing for that. I'm trying the black hornets for my crossbow this summer and glad you put the sharpener to the test on them. Will run a comparison using it vs the staysharp jig.
FYI - If you keep your stones wet (just barely) the stones will cut better. Keeps the metal shavings suspended in the water and improves cutting. Especially important when you're using the ceramic for preserving the life of the stone.
I use marvel mystery oil and it seems to sharpen faster than water and no rust later. Same thought process though.
Got the precision adjust for Christmas, and the the upgrade kit for my birthday. I LOVE my wife! Dang thing is amazing! Thanks for the video!
Hornady one shot cleaner and dry lube is a really good rust protection and easy to apply since it’s a spray. Very low odor too.
I'm 59 years old, I bought a ceramic stone already shaped to the angle of 3 blade broad heads,
They also made four blade models...cost $10 in the 90's.
I’ve been needing to sharpen my broadheads as well as a few knives. Thanks for the inspiration fellas!
I just bought one from Amazon. Can’t wait for it to come in. Going to have to watch this video again.
Troy brought up in another video about the sound difference that a coarse bur makes verses a refined bur when cutting paper to test sharpness. A coarse bur makes a zzzzzt sound and a super sharp refined bur makes a ssssst sound. Very helpful.
Great video! Not boring at all. I love my stay sharp setup thanks for letting us know about it last year Troy. I’m switching to the magnus single bevel serrated next week.
I have the Smith 50596 handheld sharpener like that and I have actually filled the edge down on the clamp itself so it doesn’t get in the way of smaller stuff. I can actually sharpen bear bleeders with it.
Good video guys. Helped me on which stones and placement to use mine on.
Just bought this after watching the video and sharpened some Simmons treesharks to hair popping sharp!! Thank you guys!! Going to try to magnus 150 single bevels this fall I think
I messaged Ranch over a year ago and told him I was using the Precision Adjust on his Broadheads and others. He hadn't heard about it yet. And I was letting him know his bevels were not right and you had to reshape the bevel from above 30 degrees. They had some metal issues they were trying to work out and couldn't get the right bevel. He really liked the idea of the worxsharp and said he would have to look for it. Looks like he found it.
I admit, I havent been able to give up my file. It was such a source of pride and a hard-earned skill getting a Grizzly, Magnus, or an Ace Broadhead literally shaving sharp.
So what I did was, I recently bought a fold-out diamond hone I can use like a file. 200, 400, 600 grit......and I can see that 600 grit makes them very smooth and clean. Cuts paper ok, but those rubber bands just pop on contact.
This is a very educational video! I’ll definitely be sharpening mine! What a sweet sharpener.
Awesome thank you guys!!
That is a nice looking sharpener. I ordered one after seeing this video. I've been using the Lansky sharpening system which is very similar but not nearly as safe or easy. It sharpens great so I know this one will do the same with less hassle. Keep these great videos coming.
Shoutout Magnus Bullheads. Shot my first turkey with a bow this spring. After many frustrations with the 200 grain "Solid Dcap" I switched to the Magnus Bullhead. Much cheaper. Better arrow flight. Less messing with my bow sight. Better outcome, better product.
I have found a flat top glass cup-preferably clear glass with water on the rim, is the best way to hone an edge…you can really hear the difference in edge issues over the length of your blade. With a little practice you can work out uneven areas and control the angle vs a leather strop
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing!
This video is soooo helpful… This changes things…. 😉👍
I've been using Sta-Bil rust stopper (I'm sure any brand will do) on my broadheads. Haven't had any rust since.
Thanks again for another awesome video I really enjoyed it and as always I'm really looking forward to seeing the next video
With the quick detach clamp you could just remove it and hold the entire clamp assembly to run the back of the single bevels across sandpaper on a flat surface. I have a piece of glass glued to an oak board. I place the glass next to the edge of a table and it allows my entire kme jig to be held while placing the broadhead flat on the glass. This way your main angle never has to change. I've also done the flat side at the same angel as the bevel, just much fewer strokes to get rid of the bur. It all works. Good stuff.
They made an elite model thats solid metal and it comes with a table top style clamp for the tiny blades and makes them way easier it also comes with digital angle reader so definitely worth the few extra bucks for the upgrade
That sounds like the professional precision adjust model which is almost double what the elite is. I have one and I think it’s well worth the extra cost.
I'm running Iron Will single bevels and brought them up to a mirror polish. That should 1) reduce drag through the animal and 2) be inherently more rust resistant. I sharpen them with a stone and rather than beveling the backside of the edge, I lay it flat on a strop and give it a couple of swipes. But as a knife maker, I may have to pick up one of these rigs, it'll make sharpening my knives a lot easier.
love the ranch fairy videos
Bought the worksharp last year after watching Ranch Fairy's video
Great informative video!!
Good job
I really like that Magnus has been doing cut on contact broadheads for a long time.... even when it looked like the industry was going away from them. They just kept making products they believed in. Now that people are switching back to COC heads and they could have an opportunity to increase their prices and really take advantage of the situation. They keep making "affordable" broadheads all while tweaking the designs and improving their products. I also like wasp for sticking to their guns as well. Wasp makes a "traditional" broadhead that is fantastic and its not super expensive. I think the released a single bevel version as well
I own my own sharpening business, 2 quick tips that will help! 1. Moisten your stones with water as you go. It will help your stones cut better. 2. Check out a diamond imulsion or buffing compound for your strop! That will be a huge game changer for your deburring!
Also, you will be most effective with your time if you sharpen until you have a burr on the opposite side that you are sharpening. At high grits, it will be very difficult to feel but you can use a small post it note or other thin paper to check for one. 😊
Awesome example fellas
Nice great video! Looks like a lot of work.
I try to sharpen my blades on my blue jeans to dust them off and then ease out back.
Excellent video gents. Heading over to get me a sharpener ❤🎉
i would find the center of the broadhead and find the center of the clamp and line the two up. it will sharpen the edge correctly
I got that same sharpener and never knew you can flip it by pushing the back end of that. 😅 learn something new everyday.
I bought this setup last season along with some broadheads and i have to say it does not seem to work as great as they make it seem. It is not easy to sharpen a broadhead with this sharpener, it wiggles and moves around a lot. You can only tighten plastic so much before it brakes.
Awesome!!! Thanks
Blue sharpies work best for me. The black is difficult to distinguish from shadows and reflections. Machinists use blue Dykem layout fluid to mark steel. Just a tip some may want to try.
Let's go! 🏹
I bought the work sharp sharpener for my knives a couple years ago and I tried it on my broadheads … then I saw Ranch Fairy do it … I was like “he stole my idea”.
If you’re willing to spend more money for some extra convenience, the Wicked Edge sharpeners are the best thing going. They allow for setting two different bevel angles at once so there’s no changing the angle setup to switch sides. They also have a way bigger selection on diamond grits, ceramic polishing stones, and strops.
I bought one for my dad for Christmas a couple of years ago not really knowing what it was, but ended up blown away by its performance.
If “scary” sharp is the goal, the hardcore knife guys using the Wicked Edge have that figured out. Instead of checking sharpness with paper, they are literally splitting hairs with their edges.
Any recommendation on which one works best on grizzly broadhead?
Sharpening my foamers right now
You should do a video on testing temu broad heads.
Use this sharpener or a diifferent one but when you can achieve an edge like that you will see the results on the animals you shoot.
It's honestly always frustrated me how dull most broadheads actually are out of the package
Pretty cool tool right there 👍👍
Y'all have a link for that sharpener
At 15:00 the stare from Zach in the corner 😂😂😂
RF question I shoot single bevel iron wills the bevel is around 34 to 32* I see this only goes to 30* will that machine work off hand or can that machine go a little higher up above 30*
When do we get to see some epic elk hunts again?!
I appreciate the sharpening video, but what's the difference between the magnus single bevel and crimson talon cleaver? They look nearly identical, same shape, blade thickness, etc.
The
SPEEDY SHARP knife sharpener is great
The bur will definitely roll to the flat side of the broad head, so it makes sense to slightly hit the flat side with the sharpener. DUH!
When rolling the burr over from the flat side couldn’t you just remove the ferrule on the Magnus so you can get the angle flatter?
Thing is SLICK!
Do you know if that jig will sharpen Simmons head’s with the flair
Is the single bevel left only or do they have a right bevel as well?
Suggestions for crossbow hunters? I use rage they have done good on everything I have shot 3 deer 3 hogs. Some of us are not able to draw a compound bow.
Will this work on a Simmons broad head?
Have you all tried a three blade fixed? I doubt that WorkSharp could do one. I did find this informative. Thanks.
Why would you not use a KME ? Convex and concave edges need to be sharpened with a radiused abrasive
I feel bad. I saved and saved to get the sirius sharpening set. Since I bought it I have only seen the fairy sharpen on this kit verses his own stones. 😞
Thats marketing for ya. A sharpener is a sharpener. Period. I’ve sharpened butter knives with a $10 sharpener that you can shave your face with.
@@ProjectHuntBowhunting I was more requesting how to do the same sharpening with his stones in the how to then a different tool.
Is that regular gun oil y'all put on the ceramic...like clp
Need round stones for concave blades, Landsharks
Ranch fairy looks like Brett farve form the packers...
I just put a thin layer of lithium grease on my Cutthroats
Do y’all have any opinions about Crimson Talon broad heads?
How do the Magnus single bevel compare to the GrizzlyStik Maasai?
Nah you need a valve gap checking tool throw that spark plug gap checker back on the shelf
Lots of Native American broadheads were that shape
What is y'alls opinion on the Annihilator broadheads?
Will this work to sharpen annihilators as well?
get a Wicked Edge system and you can do things so much faster and easier
I would be interested to know if this will sharpen SIMMONS Heads??
Would these suitable to shoot with a crossbow?
Magnus did a video back in 2020 shooting Black Hornet and stingers out of a Mission SUB1 and they flew well out to 40 yards. Look for it on their channel
I have a question!! After you r done sharpening the broadheads how much did they way? How much grains did ya lose and how much impact will that be when u use it again?
That’s a good question. We aren’t sure but something we’ll check in the future
Rusty broadheads...just buy heads that are made from non corrosive material.
Ok using a $29-37 dollar sharp and spark(Amazon and else where) which you can carry in you pocket and start fires also I can get a 2 blade sharp enough it will cut you if you look at it, in less than 7 min. no ifs ands or butts
Ive always used and stand behind muzzy 100 and 125..always sharp out the package and the results don't lie..but im tempted by those single bevel magnus or dirt nap..any advice on these types of broadheads would be appreciated..i use both compound and xbow..but also have been practicing with a old recurve..so jack of all trades kinda hunter lol
Anyone use muzzys? 👇
I used to. Got tired of spending 30 bucks every other year on replacement blades so I switched to the tool steel heads. Even just rib bones were folding over blades. I replaced them so much I could have bought 6 forged heads and just resharpened and reused them
Troy mentions he used to a lot.
As far as replacable -blade heads Muzzy and Slick-Trick's are decent.
wait your supposed to sharpen them
Work Sharp Precision Adjust Knife Sharpener are there differences to what you are showing in this video?
