I just got an XM-18 3" Slicer. Great knife!

I only do light duty with my knives, and in the past I did touchups on the Sharpmaker (esp. my Sebenza).

So...is the Sharpmaker okay for light touchups? I so, do I use the 30 or the 40 degree setting?
 
You may also want to invest (not very expensive) in a leather strop. You will be amazed at how it will help maintain your edge and your need to do touch ups on the Sharpmaker.
