What is the best tool for keeping kitchen knives sharp?
Whats better? Sharpening rods? Sharpening blocks? Your suggestions?
Answers:
I use a sharpening steel for my longer knives, but a whetstone for my smaller ones. Maybe it's because I feel like I have more control over the whetstone for smaller blades. I don't recommend the electric sharpeners. I find I can't hold the blade in there properly to keep from just grinding down the cutting surface rather than sharpening the sides at a proper angle.
