With sand paper and patience. It appears as if he found a way to paint and lacquer them as well. My guess is the same glue he used to make them was used to lacquer the weapons. He probably had no intention of using them...
I used to have a wooden paper knife. With a little passion and strength there is little doubt that it coud have done some serious damage to someone.
But the question of the matchstick knife seems to concentrate on the soft wood used and not the adhesive. Some adhesives are tremendously strong, epoxies, polyesters are as strong as steel in many applications. Epoxies are used, I believe, to hold the bodywork of buses together, epoxies and polyesters hold up the rock in the roofs of tunnels and mines. It seems then relatively easy to make a weapon. Why bother though? A sharp pencil driven through the temple might cause a little pain, don't you think? I could never understand why airlines would confiscate nail clippers but allow a needle sharp 4H pencil.
