In Guild Wars 2, oftentimes (especially during the current Wintersday event) you get recipes that you have already unlocked. Typically, I just sell them. I recently learned that runes and sigils that you don't need can be used in the Mystic Forge, so that makes me wonder: Is there currently any use for unlocked recipes?

Nope. Once they are unlocked on your characters crafting profession they are used. So selling them is really all you can do with them.

    Slight correction: Recipes unlock by character rather than account, so you can still use them on other characters.

    Yes true, by crafting profession per character. Will edit.

Most recipes are not soulbound, so you can either:

  • Sell on Trading Post
  • Announce a giveaway on the Guild

Assuming that you already have a certain recipe, on a specific character, you can't "re-learn" it, so double-clicking it again won't work. There are new recipes once in a while (like the ones you can loot from Silverwastes), which makes it "harder" for newer players to catch-up with the releases. This is why I usually announce on Guild before selling it (mainly because 99% of the recipes will worth a few copper only, so why not give away?)
