    If you can, get some sharpening whetstones (cheap ones work fine). Takes a bit of practice to use them, but once you learn, your knives will be the best tool in your kitchen.

        Those are okay, but they’re not great at making a good edge.

        The best ones to use are these type

        There’s a bit of an art to using them, but there’s plenty of tutorials on YouTube. Once you get the hang of it, it’s a very relaxing process.

        These will work on all quality knives and can make shitty ones into very sharp ones.
