These aren't the best, but they are what I am using. Spyderco Triangle, Fallkniven DC4, Japanese waterstones, micromesh on leather backing, various strops :)

Depending on the metal. An average kitchen knife? a fine Arkansas stone and a leather strop or belt. While swishing the blade on the leather, be careful not to cut yourself. Take your time. I have also used two diamond sticks and always the leather last to polish the edge.
