They are for knock back, the longer nail hits the wall, it just doesn't look that way, and at the rate of speed they are going because of TAS assistance, it is hard to actually see the small knock back of it, hope this helps.
Just as the previous coment said, it is also used in the any% TAS and probably any other speedrun that includes moving through the game. Just one doesn't save but a fraction of second, but during all the playthrough it might save a a few seconds.
The completely empty side slashes (those that hit literally nothing) are, as tamijo said, to help make wings jumps faster for reasons I don't quite understand. But if the nail does hit the wall then it's what power angel and zkydo said. Probably a mix of both.

Cyclone slash requires you to dash over the blades near the bottom before the first checkpoint, and the TAS doesn't have dash available at that point, so they pogo and skip landing on the platform which is just as good. Idk what you mean about the downdash, is there normally one?

Damage value is the following :
Vengeful Spirit + Shaman Stone = 40
Descending Dark + Shaman Stone = 23(dive) + 50(1st wave) + 15(2nd wave)
Sharp Shadow (full upgraded nail) + Fragile Strength = 32
Left Kingsmould got :
1 hit of Dive's 1st wave = 50
3 hits of Vengeful Spirit = 40 x 3 = 120
Total Damage = 50 + 120 = 170
Right Kingsmould got :
1 hit of Nail = 32
1 hit of Sharp Shadow = 32
3 hits of Vengeful Spirit = 40 x 3 = 120
Total Total Damage = 32 + 32 + 120 = 184
Health of Kingsmould = 170
Wow.
That's some maths
It's on a earlier patch cuz on the current one they have more hp
I'm pretty sure that sharp shadow isn't affected by strength but dash master does give it the same effect

0:18 if you can hug the thorns any tighter you may be able to start a c dash as you slide down the wall, rather than having to jump back up.
