If I bought this as a toy, would i be able to dull the blade?

It would be a lot of work - there is the cutting blade and also the serrated saw on the other side.

Yes. This isn't a blade. It's a chunk of metal, you'd have to do ALOT of sharpening.

I suppose you could... The blade is a bit narrower that most other blades but it will certainly give a close cut :)

Yes, but be careful with hitting stuff, because the blade is not good quality.

You wouldn't want to make a habit of it since the blade could dull, but usually the blade just stops when it hits a rock... Debris could be a problem so always wear safety glasses

I don't think I would. You would have to be very careful and it is somewhat sharp.

The edge isn't really sharp, the very dull. The tip of the blade is sharp enough to hurt someone. My 10 year old is allowed to swing it in play, but I won't let him run or jump around with it outside (or inside, for that matter).

I think it would just fine. Although it will also dull somewhat quickly, so you'll need replacement blades handy.

No. Its not sharp enough, you won't get a good shave, but it will have you thinking, why did I waste my money????

You should be able to as this was designed to be cut with the tiny blade. I just tested this with my whale punch with no problems ;-)

It's not exactly a blunt object, but you won't be able to shave with it. You'll want to put a bit of an edge on there. But not to sharp or you'll have a sharp, large blade, bouncing right back at you.

Yes. But like any blade it will eventually wear it down. Also take into account the price. If you really are looking for a true katana you will be putting out some dough!

I wouldn't do it. It isn't that kind of blade, more of a hunter/skinner type. There are many good blades out there that will do that, starting with a decent machete.

No, absolutely not! The cutting surfaces are far too sharp. My 12 year old is afraid to use it!

It will cut very short. if you want to use it for shaving, you will spend a lot of time. The blade is not very wide. ... No batteries -- it runs on AC.

Since it's actual steel, yes you could but you better know what you're doing, seeing as it's not prepared steel it will get notches more, and is more likely to be damaged if you swing it at others. Also most cons wont allow actual blades so you'd have to keep it in the sheath at all times if you did.

It probably would but it would dull the blade down quickly. You would be better off getting a cricket. They are made to use with cardstock and chipboard.
