Fold aluminum foil so that it is thick and start cutting! I have done this and it does work! It won't make them like new, but it does help!

If you have cement steps you can take your knife and drag it up towards you on the edge of the step and then flip it over and do the same with the other side. Several swips and it will be sharper. I know this isn't as good as a knife sharpener but does work.

swip it on a sandpaper over and over again or rub the paper's rough surface on the edge of the knife. Use the fine sandpaper for smoother sharped edge.

yes, you could use a stone, or ceramic.
this only works on knifes that do not have serrated edges. if your knife is serrated then you need new knifes.
