For keeping my kitchen knives in sharp order, I use something that was
in
my grandmother's knife drawer. It looks like this:

I've heard people damn this devise, but a few swipes with it and my
kitchen knives just float through tomatoes like nobody's business. No
muss
no fuss. A person can get all Rumpelstiltskin about sharpening knives,
but this has done the job on my knives (one for the past 40 years).
