I have used a lot of different techniques but the one that works best for me is DMT diamonds, move to Spyderco Sharpmaker, then strop. If you are maintaining your edge the Sharpmaker is awesome, but getting an edge needs the stones.
thoughts on the spyderco Diamond (coarse) triangles for the sharpmaker?
They are good for touching up a dull edge, then move to white ceramic triangles. If the edge is damaged, or re-profiling an angle, the DMT diamond stones are a better way to go.
