Have one of these, works well and not too aggressive.

Victorinox - Sharpening Steel... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000IAZCWS?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

This works fine for cheap butchery knives but it’s useless for expensive hunting knives made out of premium steel.
You may also need a diamond coated sharpening rod or ceramic type which can re-shape premium steel with high hardness.

I wouldn’t dream of using a steel on anything other than cheap butchery knives. My hunting knives and chefs knives are all sharpened on the lansky!!
