how sharp is the blade

It comes pretty sharp. Its not razor sharp, but it'll definitely cut through a good amount of materials.

IIRC, out of the box the blade was good and sharp. If you sharpen your own, you'll *love* the way this thing takes an edge. My Zetsurin is just about the sharpest thing I own. After a bit of work ;)

the sword is very sharp , not razor sharp but very sharp , for me I would leave it like it is , I would not try to see how sharp it is , ( I tried and it is sharp enough for me , ) if you do decide to sharpen it be very careful , you could damage the blade - scuff it , etc ,

Less than average. Its not that sharp brand new. I had to sharpen it out of the box. I have purchased a about a dozen knives on amazon and the best brand of knife I found is Schrade. They're a little more expensive but durable and stay sharper then any other brand. I would say Smith & Wesson would be the only other blade I would recommend.

It was very sharp , my daughter was curious about it and tried to slide along the blade with her finger, though I have told her be careful she got a little cut.

Mine was very sharp. Not razor sharp, but certainly so sharp it had to be handled with caution right out of the box.

blade is sharpened on one side. sharp enough where you should not need to sharpen it. main purpose of this is for stabbing though, not cutting.

The tip of the blade is sharp, and is a danger if you are not careful. Although I haven't quite experimented with it, the sides are dull and shouldn't pose harm if you're just carrying it around or storing it.

It's probably around 2-3 mm at the back of the base of the blade. It doesn't flex much, if at all, is sharpened on the cutting edge (though not terribly sharp), and is not chromed.

I haven't used it that many times but so far it's okay. The knife is not sharp to begin with. It has just enough edge to "squeeze" between the hard outer shell and the inner one. Most of the work is done by wiggling your hands instead of cutting anyway.

The blade itself isn't razor-sharp, you could grip it tight and not cut your hand. But it could be sharpened. The tip, however, is very sharp.

It's pretty sturdy and would cut through veggies. I save mine for sushi to keep the blade nice and sharp. The price is good enough to buy several and use them at will.

It's sharp on one side only. It is a huge knife, and it will get someone's attention. It is also super sharp, be very careful when you close the blade!

its sharp, but not shave hair off your arm sharp< but with 2 or 3 strokes on a rock an mine was razor sharp, the carbon blade is easy to sharpen.

The blade is at least 3/16". Very heavy blade. Be prepared to spend some time putting an edge on it. It took me about 4 hrs with a course, medium and fine Arkansas stone to get it sharp.once you establish the edge, it's very sharp. Hope this helps.

Its sharp but not razor sharp. I would not buy for anyone who is young and might use it as a toy. If not careful can cause a deep cut. Pulse its long and if you point at someone and they walk into or you accidentally pretend to stab someone and they are in the swords range can cause MASSIVE INJURY. Buy for your personal collection just dont buy it as a toy or young person.

The blade is real steel. I was impressed for the money. The edge is not sharpened and can not cut, at least on mine. It could be sharpened. The point is sharp however and could use dulling if you are giving this to an older kid. mine was a gift

Move it back and forth while pulling it out, be careful not to cut yourself tho. The blade is VERY sharp!

That blade is crazy sharp and its overall very sturdy for the price. I can't see it breaking unless you were using it on a tree or something super hard
