What is the sharpest ingame material? Doesn't matter if it's weapon grade or not. Is there anything sharper than adamantine I could make using DwarfHack?

No. Adamantine is sharp in a way that breaks physics.
-
You could increase the sharpness of Adamantine further in the raws by increasing it's MAX_EDGE, but I can never remember which changes need a new world gen.
There's gui/gm-editor world.raws.inorganics that has material.strength.max_edge for each but I don't know if making changes there would change the material properties the game uses.

Those values are the material properties the game uses - they are populated once you load a world, and they are cleared out when you return to the title screen.
However, changing the MAX_EDGE of a material will only have a direct effect on newly-crafted weapons - every existing weapon individually stores its sharpness value along with its other properties, and during creation that value is initialized based on the weapon's Quality (going from 50% for base-quality to 100% for masterworks). This actually means that you could theoretically take any individual weapon in your fortress and change its sharpness to whatever you want.

Slade.
Slade has a MAX_EDGE of 1000, worse than copper (10000.)
