The Sharpening Station is a furniture item that, when placed and pressed ⚷ Open / Activate on, applies the Sharpened buff, which increases armor penetration of all melee weapons by 12 / 4. This buff also applies to damage done by summoned minions, but only while the user is holding a melee weapon. This lasts for 10 minutes, but can be canceled at any time by right-clicking the icon (), by selecting the icon and canceling it in the equipment menu (), or by double-tapping the buff icon (). It can be found in Underground Cabins in the Underground Jungle. On the Desktop version, it can also be purchased from the Merchant for 10 during Hardmode.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

The Sharpening Station is the only one of the four class furniture buff items that cannot be purchased.
- The Crystal Ball is purchased from the Wizard.
- The Bewitching Table can be purchased from the Witch Doctor (though it can also be found in the Dungeon).
- The Ammo Box is purchased from the Traveling Merchant.
In real life, sharpening stations, also known as grindstones, are used to sharpen blades.
