Ok, Carol! Don't keep me hanging, What's your secret.
The secret is to never let them get dull. The most I have ever done other than strop them is to use a very fine grit sandpaper fastened to a piece of wood. I have used that only when there were slight gouges in the blade. Then I strop them and they are as good as new.

Carol, you might try a piece of glass with some Wet or Dry paper for doing the more agressive sharpening. I find the glass to be a flatter surface. Other than this my method is the same as yours.
