do they come sharpened already?

They aren't supposed to be sharp on the edges so if you throw by the blade you don't cut yourself.

Not so that they can easily cut something although the point is very sharp.

Throwing knives should NOT be sharpened, otherwise they would be dangerous throwing them with the blade in your hand.

They can be sharpened with a flat sharping stone using a little pressure, taking your time (Few mins.) you will be able to feel the difference from when you started. Keep the blade flat on stone using slight circular motion.

I have owned this set for a few months now. I have not tried to sharpen them because they are still as sharp as the first day I got them. They do not show sign of dullness. Hope this helps.

I hope they do I have not had to change blades yet. When I got them I just put them aside thinking they was the right size. Now I will check to see if they are the right size.

Yes, they can be sharpened to your likening. But make sure you know what you are doing, you could ruin the blade.

Very sharp and stay sharp! Yes they can be sharpened using standard method for sharpening or take to a sharpener. How often will depend on usage. When I reviewed these knives they were rated very high. I hope this helps with your decision to buy.

They have a tapered grind edge, with a slight angle at the tip of the knife, I have these and have had no problems sharpening them, I love all my Chicago Cutlery. You cant go wrong for the money.

Yes these knives can be sharpened. The only one I've not tried to sharpen is the serrated knife. I purchased the sharpener along with the knife set and it does a great job. Love the set.

No.. they are cheap knives not meant to be sharpened. Chefs talk about using these types of knives and throwing them away and buying new ones because of their price. I think sharpening them would take off the finish.. but if you wanted to try .. use one of the 16 degree ones that you slide the knife through.

I don't know for sure once sharpened but I already have one that has a scratch on the paint and the metal is showing through.

Thank you for your question! No, they did not come sharpened, however I found an inexpensive pencil sharpener on Amazon, and it sharpens very easily! I really do believe these pencils are high quality, and once sharpened, have perfect points! I truly hope this helps!

No. You have to get them sharpened. Most rinks or sporting goods stores will do it for $5

Yes. It is a good habit to sharpen after each wash. But, i dont always do that and they are still super sharp.

No- buy them separately. Depending on what you are working on, be very careful not to get aggressive grit- If working on cutlery I would use 600 grit max to start and be careful because it will remove material quickly
