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.

You’re not wrong, but… Not all swords were made of great steel. Not all were made with great techniques. On top of that they were often a backup weapon, either never needed or not used before the owner died.
Also depends on the type of sword, of course.
Add to that what I mentioned before, that the ones that survived were well made and properly used. For one of those to break, you’re right. Rare, and brought home by a surviving owner. But *devastating* if it happened so who would risk it unless it was that or get killed?
