Sharpens fast and you can go as sharp as you like.

My cheap sharpening setup. No expensive stones needed.

For those of you that haven't used the newer style of KME broadhead sharpener.....do yourself a favor and get one. It now has an adjustment that allows you to fine tune the bevel.
Here is my setup:. 12" square piece of 1/4" plexiglass and 3 strips of sandpaper (220, 400, 600). Then I stropped on a small piece of fruit roll up box with Herb's Yellowstone stropping compound. With a sharpie and 5 minutes I had this Killzone blade popping hair. Add another ulra fine grit sandpaper in between the stropping and you could easily have a polished edge.
I will add another grit in between the 600 and cardboard but I won't worry about it after that. Right now it is sharper than factory.
Here is the sharpened blade:
