I would recommend one of those little diamond encrusted sharpeners -
they
look a bit like a nailfile. Just follow the sahpe of the angle of the blade
and in a few strokes the edge will be restored.


Ray has one of those and uses it on my kitchen knives, too. It's brilliant!
The sharpeners I have came in a plastic packet - two sharpeners, one
coarse,
one fine.

Make? Brand? There seem to be loads on the market and some less useful
than others!!
