Could you sharpen a sword with it?

I would advise against it. It is not designed for swords. Small to medium size folding knives and/or fixed blades, this sharpener works well.

If you're talking about a Japanese sword, a good one you paid $1000+ for, you should always have it professionally polished and sharpened. I assume the same is true for western swords as well. If it's a work of art, you need an artist to sharpen it. I don't know that this would do the job regardless, but I would advise against it on nice swords and collector items.

Well I use it more for display, but it is pretty heavy and sturdy and sharp at the end. My guess would be if you are very careful it wouldn't break. I saw a video of someone using the sword to chop a wooden beam in half, but then again it is a cosplaying sword

It is metal so you could try to sharpen it, but why? You might damage the finish and It's supposed to be a toy.

Not initially. It comes already sharpened and it is extremely sharp. I'm sure, after some use, it will require some sharpening.

Depends on how big the sword is. It could be hard to hold it at the proper level, if it's too long. Then again, you're asking about polishing, not sharpening.

Yes, you can! As long as the blade is straight and not serrated. I've gone through my knives (including pocket knives) and sharpened everything.

The blade was dull upon arrival. It's more for display and usage as a prop than anything, but I'd assume it can be sharpened.

It's a nice little tool. I guess it's possible. But for that kind of sharpness I like using the knife and tool sharpener that worksharp has.

It's not sharp at all. In fact the entire "edge" of the sword is flat. So don't expect to cut anything with it.

You can if you are using a water stone. There are several types of sharpening stones; some require oil, some water, some nothing at all.

I do believe you can do so, but must say I have not tried one myself. It will sharpen almost any edge you want, axe.s, lawn mower blades, scissors, gut-hook knives also. Hope this helps out..es

Yes but I would sharpen it when you get it. I received mine not dull but not really sharp either. So I put a better edge on it. 20 degrees.

Probably not. For that you would need to take it to a knife shop or spend a lot of time with a whet stone.

My son said no, that you would not want to sharpen it because of the holes in the blade. He said that would likely weaken or break it.

Yes, but i wouldnt reccomend it. The sword is very fragile and will snap if you arent extremely careful.

Yes, just be sure your shun is not a single sided edge. I have two shuns and it sharpens them beautifully.

Yes it isn't razor sharp when you get it. You can sharpen it but it doesn't remain black.
