Well, after reading through this, and other threads, I ordered the work sharp off amazon yesterday. It arrived same day about 9pm last night. So, today I’m going to play around with it. I ordered a leather strip and compound, but it won’t be in for a week.
The price difference between the worksharp and the others listed in this thread (Edge Pro Apex and wicked) were just too high for my liking. I think if I want an absolutely perfect blade I will start it on the work sharp and move to a wet stone and stop after that.
I have a whole set of cheap Chicago cutlery knives to practice on before getting to our Calphalon. I’m not touching my Benchmade’s yet, as they are still sharp as the day I got them.

Hint. When you draw the blade across be sure to NOT go all the way past the belt. Stop the tip about 1/2 way. Otherwise you will round off and ruin the point.
