Newb with varieties of steel

[shaneinhisroom]

Hi guys, I'm a newb to sharpening, but I do own a variety of knives of different steel. Here is my collection of steeled knives:

154CM
VG-10
14c28
9Cr13CoMoV
S30V

All of these folding knives are very valuable to me and I would like to know if there is a way to sharpen all of them using the same method. Again I'm new to this so a universal method is preferred. I do have an unopened Kershaw Diamond Ultra-Tek sharpener at my disposal...can I use this on all my steels and get relatively easy hair shaving sharpness? Please, if you know, list your sharpening angles for these steels too!

They are all fairly sharp now, so if I wanted to keep the edge I can just hone these with a smooth honing steel as well correct?

Thanks.

Yes, what you have will work for your needs provided you understand the basic principals of sharpening, and you will have to decide at what angle to sharpen your blades at. Google is your friend.

Your steel's seem like they would benefit the mostly from Diamonds.
I would either recommend the DMT aligner

Or

You should get hair popping edges with either one of these systems I would go with the aligner, as the stones are higher quality, but the lansky excels more at "making" your own angles and recurves.
