What is the sharpest ingame material? Doesn't matter if it's weapon grade or not. Is there anything sharper than adamantine I could make using DwarfHack?

[Bumber]

No. Adamantine is sharp in a way that breaks physics.

You could increase the sharpness of Adamantine further in the raws by increasing it's MAX_EDGE, but I can never remember which changes need a new world gen.

There's gui/gm-editor world.raws.inorganics that has material.strength.max_edge for each but I don't know if making changes there would change the material properties the game uses.

Those values are the material properties the game uses - they are populated once you load a world, and they are cleared out when you return to the title screen.

However, changing the MAX_EDGE of a material will only have a direct effect on newly-crafted weapons - every existing weapon individually stores its sharpness value along with its other properties, and during creation that value is initialized based on the weapon's Quality (going from 50% for base-quality to 100% for masterworks). This actually means that you could theoretically take any individual weapon in your fortress and change its sharpness to whatever you want.

Slade.

You gotta channel slade but you can make a hammer with edited raws.

It gills.

Slade.

Slade has a MAX_EDGE of 1000, worse than copper (10000.)
