Sticking with the usability theme -- get a leather strop and some stropping compound! It's so much easier to pass all the sharpness tests and keep an edge on a knife if you use a strop. It doesn't require as much precision due to the way the leather molds to the surface of the edge. Quick, easy, and effective assuming you already have a decently formed edge.
