How are swords still have a sharp edge after blocking so many direct slashes from a sharp tempered blade.
Imo sword should look like saws after even one session of blocking really anything made of metal.

Most swords are made of tempered steel; not copper. Any damage sustained by an edge block is gonna be too small to see with the naked eye.
That said, it is happening. Take a look under a magnifier, and you’ll see it. That’s all dulling is; Micro-imperfections.
The other thing is that most fights weren’t like they are in the movies. You’d be lucky to have 3 exchanges before somebody FUBARed and ate the blade… Or until my buddy came up behind you and stabbed you in the back.
