Another vote here for the Accusharp at less than $10 from Amazon.

America's Test Kitchen wrote, "The hand-held AccuSharp Knife and Tool Sharpener ($10) has been a go-to tool in the test kitchen since 2006, when it performed nearly as well as our favorite electric sharpener, at a fraction of the price."

The sharpening blades last a long time, but, when they do wear out, you can take the tool apart with a screwdriver and reverse the blades for a second life.
