Sharpening a sword is like loading a gun, it is only done in a western army when ordered by the command, it's a court marshal offence ( usually) to do so without permission As for where a blade is sharpened, because of differences in martial techniques, Western swords tend to be sharpened in the foible, and Eastern along the full length.
