No, the answer is 100% NO, it comes "sharp" but you asked "very sharp" which it 100% is not very sharp. I could write a paragraph about this topic, stay away from anyone that tells you, "duh, well, umm, it's not razor sharp." if to them sharp is razor like one level they are not who you should be taking advice from there are arguably 3 to 5 levels of sharpness/honed starting from "sharp", I'm not including dull or less than sharp, this is sharp, very sharp would be the next level, razor sharp which applies to razor would be one or two level past sword "very sharp". Sorry I don't have the link handy that explains this very well, there was a Ken Onion documented piece on this not pertaining to swords though but to knives which, when speaking of sharpness is similar.I own it by the way, it's fricken long and heavy as hell but last I checked I'm not dueling Tom Cruise tomorrow with his light agile sword so I like it long and heavy, great practice.
