In plural, you can encounter phrases like “die schneidenden Messer” (the cutting knives) or “mit schneidenden Messern” (with cutting knives). The base form of the participle is schneidend, with schneidende or schneidenden appearing depending on gender, number, and case.

Etymologically, schneidenden derives from the verb schneiden with the present participle suffix -end, a common pattern in German for creating adjective forms that describe qualities or actions related to the noun.

Usage notes: schneidenden is primarily an attributive adjective or part of a predicate in descriptive contexts. It is not typically used as a stand-alone noun, but rather as a descriptor of objects that perform cutting, such as blades, tools, or edges.
