I have a WorkSharp 3000 I use mostly for flattening the back. Makes quick work of polishing and I use the strop disk with some polishing compound for the final touches. Prefer using diamond stones for the bevel. The WorkSharp is also excellent for rescuing a damaged chisel or iron. But from time to time I'll get out the different grits of sandpaper.
I don't let my chisels get dull. After use, I give then a few swipes on the fine diamond stone so they're arm hair shaving sharp every time I use them. Don't forget the ultra light lube on the diamond stone. I don't use a guide, I figure after 30 or so years of the angle might go off by a negligable degree or two.
