Does anyone else use
Anybody else use one of these, it's a Spyderco Tri-Angle Sharpmaker? They are just excellent, I never was very good at sharpening knives until I got this. It's amazing how good of an edge you can get with not much effort! I'd recommend one of these to anyone.

I honestly just use a couple of diamond sharpeners. I have learned over the years on how to hold an angle to put a good edge. Good steel helps. some knives just have the worlds worst angles for keeping edges, or putting edges on. Honestly I redomend Ikea's full sized diamond oval kitchen knife sharpener for keeping an edge and a set of fishing hook diamond sharpeners (various grits) for putting a new angle on.

Never used the sticks, but have used the Lansky sharpening system. I used to sharpen all the guy's hunting knives at deer camp. I've had good results with the system. I need a stone for the serrated blades.

I have a lansky system also. superb product would highly recommend it for anyone who wants to really take care of their blades.
this is what i use http://www.amazon.com/EZE-LAP-PAK5-C...+diamond+stone Like i said i can hold the angle now. takes me 30 min or so to re angle a small pocket knife. an hour or so to do a med, two or more to do a large hard steel pocket knife. Kukri sized half day. A zen moment thing for me.
