My membership name says Jr. by it and that couldn't be more true when it comes to my sharpening skills. I still find this stuff very interesting. I purchased a ceramic stone a couple of years ago and some rods after that. I never really thought about what i was buying. Now I know what I have. I still don't know how to use either of them well but that's okay. At least I know what I got now. Thank you to you guys for taking the time to explain it.

The best tip I can give you would be "The Sharpie Trick".
Just use a marker to color your edge, so you can see where your blade is touching the stone/ rods.
I've been sharpening forever, but I still use it on occasion. It's good to know when/where you're hitting the edge.
