for broadheads and Hunting Knives
Montec Sharpener from g5
When you are headed into the deep bush for a serious hunt, you are going to need a dependable sharpener that will restore the razor edge of both your broadheads and your hunting and skinning knives. And this little beauty from G5 Montec (the same folks who make Montec Broadheads) is the one to have.
The Montec Knife and Broadhead Sharpener weighs less that your car keys yet will sharpen anything from a camp ax to those tiny replaceable blades on your Muzzy or Thunderhead broadheads. This sharpener features two diamond-impregnated surfaces: one 600-grit surface to quickly restore a dull edge and a 1200-grit surface for fine honing.
Unlike a conventional stone, a diamond sharpener will not load up, requires no oil or other lubrication, and is tough enough to outlast both you and your knives. Comes with a leather carrying case and detailed sharpening instructions.

Tru Angle Broadhead Sharpener
The Tru Angle is the original ceramic broadhead sharpener and it's still the best way to get a fine low-angle edge on your broadheads.
The S-3 model is for three-bladed heads such as Montec and Snuffer, and the model S-2 is for two- or four-bladed heads such as the Magnus, Tuskers, and Grizzly.
To use the Tru Angle Sharpener place your broadhead on the so that two blades rest evenly on the two stones then stroke the broadhead back and forth while applying light downward pressure. You will be amazed at how quickly you can restore a dull edge. Because both blades are sharpened with each stroke, you are assured of a uniform edge and a consistent angle.

Broadhead Edge Protector
OK, so now you have all your broadheads razor sharp. So now how do you protect those new sharp edges as well as protecting your own tender skin from the same? Well the Protect A Edge Broadhead Protector from 3 Rivers Archery is just the ticket.
This plasticy, rubbery substance protects your pre-sharpened broadheads and your hide. It is easy to apply to any sharp edge. Just gently heat the aluminium cup on a stove top until the material melts and becomes liquid, (it melts at a very low temperature) then dip your broadhead edges in the liquid solution and allow them to cool.
Protect A Edge keeps your broadheads sharp and rust free and it is reusable. Approximately one ounce (28 grams) is enough to protect dozens of broadheads.

QUICK TIP
A Few Sharpening Hints
One of the advantages of using a traditional three-blade broadhead, such as the Magnus Snuffer, G5 Montec, or Woodsman, is that they sharpen easily and quickly on a flat stone. Even if you prefer the more acute angle on your three-blade, such as that established with the Tru Angle S3 above, the flat hone will still restore a useable edge in the field.
Never use a hone dry. Even the diamond hones (such as the G5 Montec Sharpener above) benefit from some form of lubrication to keep them from loading up and losing cutting efficiency. No need to carry a smelly can of honing oil into the field either as a good gob of spit will do the job nearly as well.
The carbide type sharpeners, such as the Magnus All-Sharp above, are a good way to quickly re-establish a cutting edge on your knife or broadheads, but the edge will benefit greatly from a few good licks on a hone after you use the carbide sharpener.
Many broadheads made today come from the factory sharp enough to use right out of the box, but most of the can be made even sharper by the judicious application of a good sharpener.
By carefully using the fine side of the diamond sharpener, above, you can sharpen blades from many types or removable-blade broadheads. Whether or not it is worth the trouble is up to you.
