I've found the best knife sharpening system is the Lansky Kit and I follow that with a ceramic or diamond stone and a leather strop. When finished your knife will be shaving sharp. And once done, it will be much easier to resharpen with just the diamond or ceramic.

In my opinion, the best sharpening system is the Chef's Choice electrical sharpener M130 model. It's quite expensive, beware, at abou 200$ I think, but it enabled even a novice to have razor sharp edges with minimal effort involved - the instructions are pretty clear.

An "Arkansas" stone .... one medium and one fine .... any light weight oil from a special honing type oil to 3-in-1. A well designed diamond sust sharpener will work well too.
A key is to not let the blade dull out in the first place ... learn to hold the proper angle ... doesn't take a lot of pressure. Take you time with the stroke, keeping it precise and develop a "feel" the metal against the stone and you'll have a super sharp knife in only a few strokes. There are lots of good instructions on how to use a stone sharpener.

I've tried some other much more expspensive systems and the Accusharp works as well as most and better than quite a few fancier sharpeners. For any knife you use a a tool (meaning, not a collectable), this is the way to go. Incredibly simple to use and puts close to a razor edge on my hunting knives.
Buck used to make a small version of the Accusharp that you can carry with you. Don't know if they still do.
