I need something better then a diamond-encrusted rob to sharpen my cutlery with. Anyone got any recommendations?
And by cutlery I mean unnessecarly-large-collection-of-pocket-kines-and-multi-tools-that-I-only-use-two-of-on-a-regular-basis.
In B4 use Google.

They're not expensive and sharpening a knife collection is a good way to kill an afternoon.
They've got those devices where you just run the blade back and forth to sharpen it, but I find with my stones, I get a much sharper blade.

John Juranitch's method requires three things: a coarse stone, a fine stone, and a steel. You grind the profile with the coarse, refine and de-burr the edge with the fine, and straighten the edge occasionally during use with the steel.
Juranitch holds the the world record for fastest sharpening of a dull axe, and the cleanest shave with a freshly-sharpened axe.  |

No idea if the products are any good, so again, do some research.  |
