The Ken Onion sharpener is the closes thing I have found to having your knives professionally sharpen. I use the 15 degree angle which works well but being such a fine angle it's easily damaged and tricky to use a steel on. It takes a light touch with a steel to bring the point/edge back.

Use a leather strop

Destroyer,
I like the finished edge of the 220 grit myself. I have only used the leather strop belt once.

I meant use a strop instead of using a steel to return the edge.
