does it leave a sharp edge?

The edge of the cut can is remarkably smooth. This opener is hands down the best one I've ever owned. I've had it (actually 2) for months now, and it performs beautifully. The cut lid is sharp, of course.

On the can, no. It cuts right along the rim! The lid that comes off is sharp, just like any other opener would do. Best can opener ever!

Yes, the cut lid edge is sharp. The can lid is pierced and sliced at an angle since the cutting wheel is canted at about a 15 degree angle to the handle, essentially making a round knife edge, like any other piercing type of opener. That being said, I have yet to find an opener that does not make a sharp edge to be consistently effective or efficient.

I have only used it on 106oz cans (quite large) The cut appears to be nice and clean and no more of a safety factor than with smaller cans opened with an electric device. My opinion - always stay on the side of safety to insure a clean cut & dispose of can & lid quickly (especially if there are children around) Hope that helps.

Not in my experience. Obviously the can *top* will be sharp, but the edges on the can itself are pretty dull.

The cut is clean so the lid does have a sharp edge. So far only a few times have we found a sharp tab left over where the cut starts and stops. Nothing like the junk ones we use to try to use. They all left sharp edges along the inside of the can.

No sharp edges anywhere I could feel. The one I got had some sort of plastic sheet adhered to where the magnet attaches to the fridge. It didn't look like the sheet was supposed to come off so I left it and it keeps the magnet or other metal from directly contacting the surface it is mounted on.

I only have carpet in the house. But I would so no. It is all plastic on the bottom and it is rounded off. Have never seen a sharp edge on this.

Mine did not have sharp edges. It is very well made. I have used mine a lot this summer. It balances nicely on the jars & cleans up well. I really like mine.

Edges are sharp. I didn't cut myself, but was careful. It is thicker than aluminum foil so not quite as flexible and it could cause some cuts along the edges.

Not sure which 'sharp edges' you're referring to, so I suppose it has been fixed as I haven't come across any sharp edges. :)

I have sharpened small paring knives with it. It only leaves a small amount, maybe 1/2 inch or less, unsharpened. It is not really noticeable. This sharpener is a very nice one compared to many others I looked at.

I have not attempted to sharpen it. I use it for cutting and scraping dough.

no,it keeps on going but the good part is that there are no sharp edges. I am happy with it

No, I haven't been cut, and I think it's unlikely. I ran my fingers around the rim to test it after receiving your question. And while it's a hard right angle, it doesn't feel sharp.

No. As others have written, it only slices in one direction. However, it does have an adjustment bar that allows for more than one thickness -- in case that's what the questioner means by double-edged.

The tip is pointy, but it is made of the lowest quality steel that a functional sword can be. So yes it can cut things and is somewhat sharp.

No. I assume your talking about the sheaving that comes with it. It's designed so you can just start using your knife and so you don't have to worry about damaging the edge.

It's "factory sharp", I believe. The 'sides' are not sharpened, they're thick and flat. The tip, however, is pointy enough to be sharp. There still really isn't an 'edge' to the sword, but you can hurt someone with the tip, if that's what you were asking. Otherwise, no edge.

Yes it does leave a serrated edge. Not a tool for leather working but a rescue tool for fire dept. To cut a clean edge I would get a high quality box cutting knife from Stanley.

It only will sharpen a fine (smooth) edge. The first side is for a dulled edge, and the second side is for a finished edge.

hasn't harmed mine at all. I do sharpen mine almost everytime I use. This is a great investment.
