Most people buy the spyderco sharpmaker for knives under $150 or so. After that I think there is one called the Edgepro Apex something or another....but you'll pay through the nose for that one.

There is also the Wicked Edge but that too is crazy expensive...
You may want to look at the Lansky Sharpening system which isn't expensive but I have no experience with it.

Thanks guys, I wanted a modern knife that looked old as hell. I think Alan did an amazing job on it. The blade is made from a very old circular saw and the clip is made from a very old misery whip saw blade. I also had him do his signature rattlesnake filework on the blade. The katana-like hamon line was a complete surprise. I always wanted a knife that had been differentially heat treated.

What does something like that run price wise?
Generally speaking. I have no clue, $200, $500, $1,000?
It is custom so I couldn't imagine it be less than a couple hundred.

Honestly I wouldn't even want to use it, but how bad ass would it be to whip that out.
