Sharpness refers to the ability of a blade, point, or cutting implement to cut through materials with minimal force, and can more specifically be defined as the capacity of a surface to initiate the cut. Sharpness depends on factors such as the edge angle, edge width, and the fineness of the cutting edge, and is aided by material hardness.
