Do you have really fancy knives with super hard steel? If so a whetstone may be the way to go. Ice bear combo stone 1000/3-6000 is cheap and useful range for sharp knives that just need touching up so you can see the internal cellular structure of the carrot you’ve just dismembered.
For everything else that needs to be made slicey in a 5mins without soaking a Norton India combo stone will prob do (https://www.cromwell.co.uk/shop/abrasives/oilstones-and-whetstones/combination-india-stones-fine/f/69922?query=norton%20oilstones)
Get the biggest stone you can as you can sharpen a small knife on a big stone but doing big kitchen jobbies on one meant for a pen knife is a pain in the hole.
