If you’re willing to spend the money, get a Ken Onion knife sharpener. It’s a belt sander specifically designed for knives and tools. You plug it in, adjust it to the angle that you want, and pull your knife through while powering it. It’s way faster than any sharpening stone, and has almost no learning curve. You can put higher/lower grit on it depending on what you need. Got a chip in a knife? Hit it with low grit and grind it down until the chip is gone (yeah you will lose some knife, but as far as I know there’s no way to add metal back to a blade). Want to just touch up your knives? Use medium-high and then high grit. Shit, you could sharpen a butter knife to a razor if you’re so inclined. It’s a bit of an up-front investment, but it’s a great fool-proof way to sharpen knives really fast.
