As in, what do you use? Tradition is a rock I suppose. I've had all manor of rocks, bought these ceramic sticks and they are, well, okay, but fine sharpening and take a while if it's really dull. I had one of these carbide sharpener things, don't know where it went, was a rather course sharpener, but got an edge on quick.
Then, I got this thing at wallyworld one day and, well, I like it, it works! It's a carbide sharpener on one side and a ceramic sharpener on the other. You whip out a quick sharp blade on the carbide side, then smooth it with the ceramic side. It works great and doesn't take long! Pretty safe, too, in a plastic handle that keeps your hand away from the blade you're working on.
So, I'm bettin' there are traditionalists here that scoff at anything, but rocks, but just how do YOU sharpen your blades?
