the best and easiest sharpener i have found is the V-Sharp by warthog! it is the best for a quick sharpening right before you run out the door or the sit down long fine edge work! i got it about a year ago and stopped looking! i dont want to waste my time looking for a better one when (I) dont think there is a better one out there!! later

I have several Arkansas stones sold by Smith that I have had for 40 years. They do a great job. Takes skill and time.
Have a Gerber diamond steel that use along with a ceramic steel. Also does a great job. Takes skill and time.
Two days ago I picked up the Syderco Sharpmaker. It does a great job with less skill and time than my other setups. Has brass safety rods to help prevent oops. I highly recommend the Sharp Maker.

I have one similar to it but it's called "The Samurai Shark". I was skeptical at first but it definitely sharpened the edges of my S&W tactical folder. I have one of each "Samurai Shark" in the kitchen of my apartment and the other in my travel bag.

I've always used flat stones until I found the "Smith's Precision Sharponing Kit" very impressed with that kind of setup.

Spyderco Sharpmaker, best $50 I've spent on sharpening supplies.

I have to ditto the sharpmaker. It's knife sharpening for dummies and when it comes to knife sharpening I'll freely admit I'm a dummy.

Spyderco sharpening system is superb -about $50 on line

I was at a woodworking convention in LA back in the mid 1980's. Spyderco had a booth there. I met the owner and his wife. It was the first time I had ever seen a serrated blade on a pocket knife. They were also demonstrating how their triangular ceramic stones. I ended up buying one of their Police Model knives, and a set of their stones in a leather carrier. Spyderco was brand new on the knife scene and nobody knew who they were. I have used that set of stones ever since and they still work as good today as they did the day I bought them. I used to use a good oil stone, but they haven't been used since I bought the Spyderco set. I can't recommend them enough. Quality isn't cheap, and cheap isn't quality.
