Can I sharpen the back blade?

yes, it is a straight blade on both sides and not serated, an easy sharpen on front and back of blade.

Its not sharp already? I received mine as a double sided blade. I believe that in most states it is illegal to carry a double sided blade but as long as it stays in the home there is nothing to worry about

yes you can, just be wary of the finish, you would'nt want to scratch it. Another good tip in using this knife is to use a silicon based lubricant so the knifes body won't become oily in use.

It already is about halfway back. They left a flat section closest to the handle so that you wouldn't cut yourself if you're grip slipped. Be warned though I did drop this knife on gravel and the point broke off of it.

I use a Spyderco Sharpmaker for it. It's fairly inexpensive and the easiest sharpening method. As far as not needing to sharpen it because it has a "SpyderEdge," that's total nonsense. It's a blade. Blades dull with use. Blades need to be sharpened.

I have no idea though I have had one for some time. It's cheaper to buy a new one than conventional sharpening unless you can do it all yourself.

I don't think you can sharpen the blade. I think it would need replacement if you were to dull the blade. I've cleaned over four hundred fish on my original blade and still goinig. I will never use anything else!!!

One of the knives, that I use most often, is being to get dull. I don't know if they can be sharpened. I've been wondering the same thing, but just haven't investigated yet.

Turn it on and hold a knife sharpening steel or super fine diamond file to match the back bevel of blade for 15 seconds or so. Don't sharpen the face of the blade or it won't cut straight.

yes, the blade can be replaced but, you wouldn't need to because it can be sharpened. this product also comes with the sharpening stone. it's best to give the blade a few strokes with the stone every 100th cut or so to get a clean cut.

Theoretically, you could sharpen just about any blade. The better question is, would it be practical? The answer to that question is a resounding, no. It's not high grade steel at all, and if you go swinging the thing around too much, the handle will break right off. It's a costume prop, no more, no less

The only way I know of to sharpen a set of blades like this is by using a rat tail diamond hone. It is skill dependent and time consuming. Highly recommend purchasing a spare set of blades and scrap the idea of sharpening.

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.

From what I hear there are places where you can sharpen this kind of knives. But I don't know if it would be possible to do it at home.

Check with your local hardware store about sharpening. My local Ace store said it can sharpen the chain for $7.

You can sharpen anything. But if you don't know how to do it you had better leave it to a profssional. Look for someone that sharpens saw blades in your area. I would take the entire cutter to him and let him remove the blade.

Yes, you can but you might consider getting the Shun sharpening steel. The Shun knife blade is set up on a particular angle The Shun steel has a built in guide to set the knife at exactly the angle the knife has from the factory. I should also say that a few swipes on the Shun steel really makes a difference, aligning the edge and removing small imperfections without doing damage to the blade.

I don't think you can sharpen these blades. They don't come out of the housing and the blades can't be separated.

Not really no, just keep it clean, and sharpen it when it's dull. Which isn't very often.

Yes you can. The sloped edge of ceramic is the main sharpener for serrated knives. One can also use the diamond rod, if the serration needs a more aggressive approach.
