My wife has not had a problem with the sharpness of the blade. She uses the pruner a lot, though always wipes them down and uses Felco spray oil on them after every use.

Thew blade was sharp on arrival. As with any other knife blade, it will eventually dull with use.

I've used it this past summer several times and its still sharp enough! It depends on how often is used but i saw a u-tube demonstration how to sharpen it and is pretty easy to do.

We use these extensively in our grape vineyard. We are making thousands of cuts everyday. I use a couple of drops of 3-1 oil and lightly file mine every two days.

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

Yes it can be sharpened. I just make a few swipes on my fine steel between uses and its razor sharp. The blade is very thin so its great for fine thin slicing which is what I use it for.

Yes. I have had this set for about a year and they haven't needed to be sharpened. However, I've had one of the pink chef's knives for several years and it takes sharpening well.

Not to often, depending on long you use it. I usually sharpen it while I'm using it just to have a sharp point to use.

Yes. I've only had to sharpen mine once so far. Puts it back to its original sharpness. Agree, with RWG, just love this knife.

The blades are removable but should simply be replaced and not sharpened.. I cannot imagine, with reasonable care, that you would need to sharpen the blades.....

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

Pretty new piece of equipment for me. Have not had to sharpen the blade. I did use a little vegetable oil on the blade and it worked a bit smoother.

There is not a sharpener included. The blade comes sharpened but is not super sharp.

I don't know. I haven't had to sharpen or replace blade yet. It looks like it's just 2 standard razor blades. I was assuming you just replace when it gets dull.

Yes and no if the blade is very dull it won't sharpen, if the blade is sharp it will maintain the blade. I use a hand file to first shape the edge then I use the sharpener.

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.

Yes they need to be sharpened. However, these blades remain sharp as long as the device is used properly. My neighbor and I both use this mower since springtime and have never had a need to sharpen the blade. My history with this produce line is to sharpen every 3-5 years depending on usage and storage. I hope this is helpful.
