If you have a really good knife don't use one of those cheap angled sharpeners (I learned the hard way). Go to a cutlery shop and have them show you how to sharpen it with a diamond sharpener. Mine works great with my Forshner and it is always sharper than I can imagine. Those cheap sharpeners work okay for cheaper knifes like those Rapala ones you can get at Sporting Goods Chains.
