Yes, it's worth sharpening them and you may be surprised how good an edge they can take. Cheaper knives are often not as hard as luxury ones made in Germany and Japan, which means that while they go dull a little easier, they are also easier and faster to sharpen.
Many hardware stores and grocery stores (Whole Foods is one) offer this service. Professionally-sharpened knives hold their edge longer, explains Rick Martinez, BA's digital associate food editor, so it's worth the $10-$20 price per knife.

Sharpening steels, stones and whetstones are great for home chefs who only occasionally sharpen their blades, and butchers who sharpen one or two knives regularly. But, if you're a commercial butcher who uses multiple knives on a regular basis, an electric knife sharpener is often best for the job.
A sharpening stone, also known as a whetstone is a kitchen essential used by professional chefs across the globe.
Not all knives are the same and different knives require different types of sharpening tools and techniques. Using the wrong tool or technique can damage the knife.
A honing steel and a whetstone are not only the best tools for the job, but they're cheap.
A- It typically takes between 5 and 10 minutes to sharpen a knife using a whetstone. The exact amount of time will depend on the degree of the dullness of the knife, the type and grit of the whetstone being used, and the skill and experience of the person doing the sharpening.
Most pros would agree that pulling the blade edge across the whetstone produces the best results. Not only will it bring the knife to its sharpest but it's also a much more effective way to remove chips and imperfections from the blade.
How to use a Manual Knife Sharpener: Place the knife against the coarse side of the sharpener and swipe it across the surface around ten times. This initial step sets the foundation for a sharp edge. Afterwards, switch to the fine side of the sharpener and repeat the swiping motion ten times.

It's just some, like ceremic knives, are hard and brittle and need special equipment to sharpen them, like diamond Lapping. Ceremic blades are harder than normal honing stones, so, will not make any sharpening effort. However, pretend rubber knives are only for show and definitely cannot be sharpened.
The Forchner knives are a good example of this. They are softer stainless steel so they are easy to sharpen and they will set you back half of what a knife like a Wustof or Henkel would. The best example of hardened knives would be the Henkel knives with their “ice hardened” blades.
