What do you guys and gals use to sharpen you knives?? Stone,Ceramic,Diamond boards,Leather strap?? I saw a gal put a super edge on a knife with a belt sander at an farmers market last summer.. Just wondering what you use...
I'd rather be in the woods thinking about God, than be in church thinking about being in the woods...

Medium diamond stone then finish with a fine (smooth) Arkansas stone

Best sharpener out there.  Expensive, but gets knives sharp in a matter of minutes.  Love this thing.

A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands, love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper; his hands remember the rifle.

Same here.  Switched to this knife a few years ago though and havent used the others since. Its sharp enough to circumsize a nat!  Its called the piranta edge. A lot of taxidermists use it
