Lansky
I use a, hmmm, forgot the name of it and had to go look it up, it's a Lansky. Anyway, it is a stone with a rod sticking out that fits in a metal doohickey, with different degrees on it. You clamp the knife blade in tight and run the stone on the edge, starting from the back to front. It's actually harder to explain than all this typing. Three stones, coarse, medium, & end with fine. Sorry for the poor explanation. This is the best I've found to give me a consistent sharp knife.
This system would be much more difficult for big knives, depending on what you call big, but anything over about 6" is going to be difficult on this jig, Waidmannsheil, Dom.
