Thanks everyone

First of all , all my knives are cheap ones. Mostly chinese made and some Moras and the like. Second, I am not experienced ( not even interested to learn LOL ) knife sharpening. So, I lean towards easy sharpeners that I can use with eyes closed (figuratively speaking LOL).

My budget is around $ 10 for each sharpener, but may go up a little if interested. I am thinking to buy 2 or 3 different ones to see for myself which suits me best and may want to buy more sharpeners later

On the Smith pocket pal that Callahan mentioned , there is a carbide side and ceramic side. My question is : will those labels fade after some usage ???

The smith pocket pal is definitely going to be on my list. The "dogbone" sharpener too. Thanks guys , and I will appreciate more suggestions

Oh, I remember seeing some X shaped sharpeners on You-tubes. Yellow/orange colored and one V on each side. What do you think of those re : quality , and convenience of usage ??
