I sharpen my mind by getting plenty of practice in. At the rate I've been going, I can see my practice has payed off. I keep my mind alert and ready for anything. And like others said, a knife wouldn't hurt.

Read anything that interests you on the subject, if you know the subject ahead of time.
By so doing you'll sharpen your knowledge base.

Your tongue and your mind.
I was once told that I had the precision of a surgeon in terms of such interactions with people. Now, I see it more of a waste of time to enter such battles.

A knife, just in case you lose the battle of wits.
