I second Chris comments on unsharp masking and would add that
lighting seems to have some importance too: there are very few
shadows in his pictures, looks like all shots were taken around
noon, or with the sun in the back.
I suggest that you not equate unsharp masking techniques with the
sharpness "quality" of image that a point-source enlarger provides.
I might be tempted to ask that you consider the difference one might
observe, by comparing two negative/print of the same scene... one
developed in high sulphite (solvent) developer to the other developed
in a high accutance developer.
The resulting prints are disimilar and differences in "sharpness" are
difficult to describe, but can be observed. With a point-source
enlarger the edges of every "grain" are both sharp and readily observed.
