I don't know of any sharpness scales, but I can give you a relative idea. It's dull in the sense that one could brush their thumb down the whole blade and it wouldn't cut; however, if you were to do it with enough force it certainly would. It's definitely sharp enough that a swing would take out basic foliage. I mean, it's really just a $20 machete. For that price you could probably find already sharpened ones, but you're also paying for its particularly cool look and the case. It's not so dull though that sharpening it would be a total pain.

It is sharp, But I wouldn't use it to cut anything. its just basically a decoration.

The tip is extremely sharp but the cutting surface is not sharp enough to cut paper. Nonetheless when I applied a sharpening stone I found that it took and held the sharpening quite awhile. Not bad for a very inexpensive sword with quite a bit too much of carbon.

The one I received was sharpened, but not to a very keen edge. It took me about and hour and a half to get it to an edge that I was satisfied with.

It's not sharp due to AMC right's and most ppl that will buy it know nothing of swords.. Full tang is a yes, this is a full tang battle ready katana. Once sharp if you want to sharpen it, it can kill So becarful

It's pretty sharp already! But, as long as you're not sharpening it on an electric grinding wheel and overheating it I don't see how you could hurt anything sharpening it. It seems like a very high quality blade.

It should sharpen it without any issue. I have sharpened several pocket knives, 3" and up. Also, a few 10" kitchen knives.

om gosh, it is so super sharp, I have never had to sharpen it...it is razor sharp no pun intended. just make sure you wipe off blades carefully before you put it away and it will stay quite sharp.

Sorry, just saw this email. Hope it's not too late to help you. No, I don't believe the edge you speak of is sharpened. I gave the knife to my daughter to take to college with her, so I don't have it handy. Will it take an edge? I don't know, I suppose it's possible. That doesn't help, I know, but since I don't have it with me I don't want to say anything misleading.

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.

Its not sharpened to a fine point. It is "blunt". It is pointed enough to cause pain but not be looked a as a weapon.

Um not quite sure what youre asking there buddy. But I'll try my best... it only has one edge on it and it is sharpened on two angles

I don't think it needs to be sharpened for a very long time. At the price, you can always get another one. If you want to spend $130.00 and up, you may have to have it sharpened professionally .

Yes, it is agreat knife, I have 2 of them, they are very sharp and I only have them sharpened professionally. Cooks Magazine reviewed a lot of knoves and this was #1, and the cheapest!!!

Hi. Bothe sides of the blade are hollow grind sharpened. If you are looking for this type of cutting instrument I believe you will be pleased.

It is a shovel and has the standard edge. I would not call it sharp, just has a tappered end. A good well fitted shovel.

it comes pretty dull, but once sharpened, it can cut through alot, it's sturdy, but thick, and needs quite a bit of sharpening.

I have not had a need to sharpen the blade. It has been used seasonally and this is the second year of use. It is extremely sharp when it arrives and it remains sharp. I'm not certain as to what I will use to sharpen when the time comes.

I use a Spyderco Sharpmaker for it. It's fairly inexpensive and the easiest sharpening method. As far as not needing to sharpen it because it has a "SpyderEdge," that's total nonsense. It's a blade. Blades dull with use. Blades need to be sharpened.
