Heya, It is easier to hammer a sharp nail than a blunt one into the wood. This is because blunt nail occupies more area than sharped nail. As pressure exerted it inversely proportional to area lesser the the area, the pressure will be more.So the sharp will exert more pressure as it occupies less area.
