Obviously it need to have a sharp edge, I'm just pointing out that you wouldn't want a razor edge.

I strongly disagree. I can shave with my carry knife and it stays that sharp even after I dig with it. Perhaps you need to upgrade your knife. And even if it did dull between his belt and his breastbone, it's still going to be sharper than if you started with anything less than razor sharp.
Dull knives require more effort to cut, that translates into a loss of control if it slips or moves suddenly through what you are cutting. People who cut themselves do so due to a lack of attention, not because a sharp knife is more dangerous.
