There's a guy on blade forums who will put a NICE edge on them for you for $1/per inch.
If you have a bench grinder check out buying some paper wheels

He's good people, his name is Richard. He sharpened my MT Ultratech for me at the same price. Heck of a guy, send your knives to him with confidence

Go to better kitchen supply stores, of chef supply (whatever they are called in your area) and buy Japanese water stones, they are not that expensive and work like a charm. Sushi chefs use them and I can't imagine a sharper edge than that. You can also buy them on Amazon last time I looked. Easy to use as well.

You need to dig further into his site young padawan.

You can use his techniques on any stone. If you don't want to spend the money on a quality stone, then you have 2 other options. Go get a $5 sharpener and be satisfied. Or send it out to be sharpened.
