I have a Spyderco Sharpmaker and like it. A better value is this Lansky

Old school guys will tell you to suck it up an learn to use a stone. I don't have that skill.

  • Never cut on ceramic plates or (shudder) glass cutting boards

  • Never put knives in dishwasher - Hand wash only

  • Never use knives for anything but cutting

  • Always buy good quality, not necessarily super expensive, but good quality steel

  • Frequently re-hone on a ceramic rod hone or crock stick Vee hone

  • Invest in a high quality angle controlled sharpening system and learn to use it to make both primary and secondary bevels for those times when your knives need major resharpening. I use a moderately pricey Edge Pro Apex Deluxe system which is great, but overkill for most home cooks with only a few kitchen knives to be sharpened occasionally. I used to advise against any form of electric knifesharpener, since for so long so many of them ate knives. But, I've come to realize that the average, non-knife-knut home kitchen cook might be better served with one of the Chef's Choice sharpeners. (That almost goes against everything I used to preach, but after giving away several traditional tri-hones and DMT diamond hones and finding that they just weren't getting used because the recipients really weren't that interested, I came to believe that a simple machine is what most folks really want unless they are interested enough in knives to have already done their own online research. )

    Edit - Which electric sharpener and hone do you have? Do you know about using your steel or ceramic hone with the tip placed straight down on the cutting board so that your angles and strokes are consistent?

I know you said he doesn't read much but I think his love of Saab will like this book.

Since your knifes get dull quickly I have found that this sharpener does wonders to my knifes, I use this to sharpen my sushi knifes before use. I couldn't ask for any other one.

I do it myself, I bought a ceramic stick sharpener off amazon (this one, although it appears to not be around any more -- https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001KN3OLI/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1).

It's super easy, like 10 minutes. Hold the blade vertically, and let the mount do the angle as needed.

Probably would pay for itself after one or two paid-sharpenings.

Just get one of these and do it yourself. I have henckel and wusthof knives that I've been using for 20 years and never needed to have ground. More importantly they are always sharp and I never have to wait more than a minute for a sharp as hell knife.

Currently, I'm using Crock Sticks as my primary method. I also have numerous diamond files, which are tapered, for serrations. A set of Arkansas Stones, and such.

If I could just buy one, I'd go for Spyderco's Sharp Maker. It has everything you'll ever need. Plain, serrated, scissors, any set up. Preset angles, or flip it over and use it as a flat stone...
