Are they dull or slightly sharp?

They are slightly sharp and oiled,great for decor, not for kids,but my 15 year old knows they are for collection only.

the tips are sharp, you might be able to do damage with the tips but the blades are completly dull

I haven't noticed any dullness with the blade although I've only used it a few times. I do think it is a pretty good quality for the price. It is not too loud either.

They get gradually duller. Depends on how long you can tolerate to take to shave (and touch up with a blade) before replacing. I was on the same blades for 5 years or so and realized how bad they were when I forgot it on a trip to France and bought a new one there. You can supposedly also sharpen them a bit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSBX81U1otM

I've thrown them for a while now, and I've never been cut by them, but I would imagine they are sharp enough to cut your hand, but that would depend on how you throw them (I use the pinch grip, so there isn't really much of a risk of me cutting my hands).

I agree with the previous replies, they are neither shiny or dull. I would say they are brushed.

The only way to sharpen them is to sharpen the non-serrated side of the scissors. If the scissors do become dull, simply let me know and I will send you out a replacement pair free of charge.

I wouldn't consider them sharp, the tips are rounded, perhaps like a large ball point pen.

They are not sharp. They are tapered to a blunt point and are easy to drive into even the hard packed clay I have. Very much worth the price.

They are sharp enough to penetrate food, but not sharp enough to cut someone eating with them.

They come sharp not razor sharp but sharp enough to get the job done with no problems I've ordered 3 sets of these blades and I always just put them right on and they work great!! Hope this helps

I have no complaints about the buttons. They are small but they do not seem sharp to me.

I chop and slice every day on one or more of them, using quality steel honed cutlery. I occasionally see small traces of knife edges, but nothing as you describe. I also put them in the bottom of my dishwasher on normal cycle and they have held up well.

Yes, very sharp. I really like them a lot. Be sure to keep away from children.

No they're dull. And the straps that are on the sleeves that you put the swords in are very loose and there's no way to tighten them. However, the swords are awesome! Really badass! If you want to them to be sharp then you'll have to sharpen them yourself.

The blades are self sharpening with normal use. If they have gone dull it may be due to cutting paper stock that is too thick. You would need to contact the manufacturer.

Mine worked very well they are sharper than expected. You just have to keep in mind that they are small, paper, stray beard hairs, gorilla tape. Cut them all pretty good for me.
