Hey mate here is your answer

A sharp knife has a very thin edgeto its blade. A sharp knife cutsobjects better because due to its very thin edge, the force of our hand falls over very small area of the object producing a large pressure. And this large pressure cuts the object easily. On the other hand, a blunt knife has a thicker edge.

thanks

be happy

Aditya sir it increases the pressure due to less area of cross section
