Can this knife be sharpened?

Basically you can't sharpen them because they are the same hardness that sharpeners are. I just send mine back to Kyocera and they send me new knives for the sharpening price. Kyocera does now make a diamond sharpening machine for about $80 but conventional sharpeners will not work.

Yes, you can! As long as the blade is straight and not serrated. I've gone through my knives (including pocket knives) and sharpened everything.

The knife seems to be high quality, and is stainless steel. I haven't tried to sharpen it yet, but it should be as easy as any knife. A honing steel can also be used if you take care to follow the curved edge.

They are really sharp to start out with and they last a pretty long while. I'm not sure if they can be sharpened, although if they can't be sharpened I'm sure anyone could just replace the blades on then with new ones. I love these knives. Hope that helped in some way or another.

Hi there, the blade can be sharpened but not replaceable. Nevertheless, if you encounter any issues, you can always write back to us or contact us from our corporate website - blizetec dot com. We always take care of our customers. Yes, based on our recent survey, we are planning to roll out non-serrated model in summer or sooner. BlizeTec

serrated blades can be sharpened. Just get a Diamond sharpener for serrated blades. I got mine at Lowe's

I don't know. I'm under the impression that serrated knives in general cannot be sharpened.

Any knife can be sharpened by it. I sharpened all my knives, even serrated, really well and with not much effort.

No. As far as I know ceramic knives can't be sharpened, they have to be replaced.

YES! Use the Wusthof Asian-style sharpener. It does an excellent job. It has both a coarse and fine set of ceramic sharpening stones set at the proper angle for this blade. I have had this knife for quite a while and still love it.

Honestly Im not sure but you can send it to Kershaw for them to sharpen it for free. That is what I do with all my Kershaw knives.

Yes, they can be sharpened! I LOVE a sharp knife, and I sharpen all of my knives regularly! Kuhn rikon sharpener is great, but I recently got a new sharpener as a stocking stuffer, it's called "edge of glory", I love it too. These aren't expensive knives, but for the price, I love them. My old ones, I sharpen every other time I use them, my new ones are a joy to use! Even high dollar knives need to be sharpened every now and then! I give these as gifts!

I would think so. I have this KA-BAR Potbelly, and it will sharpen that. http://www.kabar.com/knives/detail/39

Hey Dan. I haven't had to worry about sharpening the knife yet. I bought it a month ago and use it almost daily. The edge is still just as sharp as when I pulled it out of the package. I've seen other reviewers state that eventually it will need to be sharpened but I haven't reached that point yet.

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

No, because that would dull it considerable, and probably lower the temper in the blade due to excessive heat. The blade is much thinner than a conventional kitchen knife.

I believe you can set the edge in as far as you need to. I have not run into this situation yet. But the knife would have to be very very thick to really affect the sharpening.
