is the blade sharpened on both side or is it sharpened on one side?

Sharpened on both sides. Best if you get the smith pocket pal sharpener to go with the knife. Keeps a great edge on the blade,

It's for both left and right. I can use it only to the right of the blade on my 60 year old Craftsman saw because it's too wide to use on the left side.

Its right handed.....blade is on the right. I'm also right handed and it works perfect.

One side of the blade is smooth and the other is serrated. The serrated side cuts through roots easily when repotting pot bound plants and while digging in soil for planting. It also is a great tool for weeding. I love mine and wouldn't be without one after purchasing my first one a couple years ago. Carol

Its not sharpened to a fine point. It is "blunt". It is pointed enough to cause pain but not be looked a as a weapon.

the tip of the blade is a stright angle cut. there is a slight curve to the over-all blade.

I have not had a need to sharpen the blade. It has been used seasonally and this is the second year of use. It is extremely sharp when it arrives and it remains sharp. I'm not certain as to what I will use to sharpen when the time comes.

the difference between the two sides, 1 side is for initial sharpening (rougher stone used), side is to for making the blade smoothe (softer stone used) which will make the knife cut like butter. Hope that helps.

1 sided. can use to sharpen blades, but mostly for shaping. grit is coarse.

There's only one cutting edge and yes it's beveled on both sides. This knife is a freaken razor. It will shave hair off your arm out of the box.

Although it's a single-edged knife (I despise chisel grind knives), you can sharpen both sides if you choose. I think any blade cuts better if it's sharpened on both sides, especially if you're right-handed. Most chisel grind knives cut great if you're left handed, because the sharpened side is on the left. But with this big mamma, you have nothing to worry about. Paper sheets seem to cut before the blade even touches them! A person would have to be insane to mess with you if you have one of these. And they do a great job cutting.

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

Only one side is sharpened. The blade is made like a bayonet style knife, with the point being extremely sharp and the cutting edge like a razor.

doesn't this thing have TWO blades? the photo shows it peeling carrots and only one side of the blade is serrated - so is the other side dull or have a cutting surface too?

No it isn't, while it is kind of sharp I had to send away to be sharpened and even then it wasn't as sharp as I would like. Hope this helps! :)
