Does it include sharpening instructions? What other tools are required for sharpening?

Instructions are minimal. I'll transcribe them for you. "Flexcut carving knives are sharpened at the factory, which gives them a highly polished, razor-sharp edge. Keeping them at peak performance is easily done by periodically polishing the inside and outside edges on a Flexcut Slip Strop with Flexcut Gold Polishing Compound. When it comes to carving, sharp tools take less effort to make a clean cut and give you more control. This means you'll work safer and get a better results. Do not use a sharpening stone on these blades. It will damage the edge. How To Sharpen Your Blades Glue a strip of leather to a piece of wood to create a strop. Apply Flexcut Gold Polishing compound to the strop. Drag your blade edge across strop at a 15 degree angle. Repeat several times on each side to polish the edge." I also ordered the Flexcut SlipStrop kit for sharpening the knives and it has more detailed sharpening instruction. http://www.amazon.com/Flexcut-Tool-PW12-Slipstrop/dp/B000ZRT75M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1391101795&sr=8-1&keywords=flexcut+slipstrop I hope this helps.

I've just purchased mine this year so I haven't had to sharpen the blades. but there is a specialized tool for it that is pulled along the blade. That all I know about it.

Our trimmer is new, so it has not needed sharpening yet, however, there are many articles to tell you how to do it yourself, such as on www.gardenguides.com/67541-sharpen-black-decker-electric-hedge... They say it is cheaper, however , I would have someone else do it , due to my limited skills. :-)

When I got mine, it only came with a simple one-sheet diagram, showing the knife and what the different parts of it are. As far as I know, there is no further instruction manual for it.

Yes, a sharpening steel. It has the round handle in the upper-left. I had to look because the knives come incredibly sharp.

It comes with a sharpening stone. I have done approx. 400 sq.ft. So far and the blade shows no sign of having to be replaced yet.

I have not attempted to sharpen it. I use it for cutting and scraping dough.

Not that sharp when you get it, in my opinion. Like another person mentioned, it does come with a sharpening stone. I used a different type of sharpener though...now it's a razor lol.

You shouldn't have to sharpen it actually the materials your passing it through should do it for you. However for the rare instance where it does all you need to do is take a metal file to the edges of the tool. I would file a little bit off then test it out until you have the edge you want

I haven't but I would use one of those plastic sharpeners that have the ceramic and the course sharpeners. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00032S02K?cache=f7f8c0a1e822bec97cb9f8ac53ad27a3π=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70#ref=mp_s_a_1_6&qid;=1393128365&sr;=8-6

It is approximately 24-28 inches long, about 12 inches wide and about 12 inches in height. No, there is no blade sharpener included.

Doesn't need to be sharpened. I have had mine for over 10 years and it still works fine. Bought this one for a friend who used mine and couldn't believe how easy it was to use.

No, but it is really simple to use. I was able to sharpen all my kitchen knives in just 10 minutes.
