I'm not going to get into the legalities and how dangerously stupid these knives are, but I will say this. I absolutely HATE getting a sharp knife when I first buy it. The reason being is because at the factory they don't take time to sharpen it, they put an extremely sharp angle on it so it's sharp until you use it a couple times. It takes a lot of time to get a knife to keep an edge if they make it really sharp from the factory.

I know it sounds weird, but you always want to buy dull blades and invest in a good stone to sharpen it yourself. ALWAYS use a stone so you can put your own edge on it, if you use those things you hold in your hand that you just slide the knife through the little V thing, it will sharpen it really fast but it will never keep an edge.

Just make sure you know how to use a stone, it is hard to hold the perfect angle so I made a little wooden wedge that I hold my knife on and make passes on the stone. Make sure your stone is properly oiled as well.

The dulled down versions cannot be sharpened.

Ah, I've already ordered one through amazon then, I guess that is why they don't have sharp bladed ones on for sale UK amazon lol. Ordered this one; is it a good one?

If it's metal, then it can be sharpened. I sharpened a flat head screw driver so I could have a throwing screw driver lol.
