For cooking, I bought some Japanese knives (Kamikoto). They are perfect, they came with a whetstone, and I had never needed to sharpen them. I also have some German (Henkel) kitchen knives, those ones need to be sharpened and I tried the whetstone instead of the scraper. Huge difference, and if you want to take care of your knives, (any, not just for cooking) get a good whetstone and take a hand at doing this yourself. There is satisfaction in this that only men can understand.

I have quite the collection of knife sharpening stones. I have Wusthoff and Henkel knives in my kitchen and you can shave with any one of them. Hand sharpening knives is very satisfying.
