Should I do it or am I wasting my time? I got these off Amazon a while ago they’re smith and Wesson throwing knifes and we’ll I’ve been wanting to sharpen them since I got them but don’t know if I can do it. Any advice or criticism is welcomed thank you!

Throwing knives don’t need sharpening, and the stainless steel is very unfortunate metal to sharpen.
You don’t really sharpen throwing knives. The tip should be moderately sharp, but the edges are not. Get yourself some log slices or scrap lumber and make a target with the endgrain facing you – those knives will stick right in. If they get damaged or something you can freshen up the tip, but sharpening is not needed (or desired).
Theyre not heat treated so they wont really be sharpenable.
use a fine metal file to touch up the points, that’s all you can do.
