What to buy to hone and sharpen global knives?

I recently purchased the Global Ikasu Knife Block Set (I also have an I.O.Shen Chef's Knife) and I need some advice on what brand of steel and stone to purchase. I am considering buying a diamond steel, should I buy the Global one or another brand? The Global diamond steel is quite coarse and I would prefer one with a finer grit. Perhaps a fine DMT steel.

Should I stick with a Global or Minosharp Sharpening Stone or can I buy another brand, and what is the difference between a diamond, whetstone or ceramic stone?

Any experience with the Minosharp pull through water sharpeners. I've heard that they don't work as well as a steel and stone.

Thanks!

I have all 3 solutions you mention above. From what I've read, the only way to truly sharpen a knife is using a whetstone--the hard part about it is that you have to hold it at the Right Angle to do so, and doing so with a global knife can be a challenge. I certainly havent' mastered it myself... the steels are designed to align the blade which may noticably improve its cutting ability but won't sharpen it. the nice thing about Shun as a brand over global is that you can always send the knife to the manufacturer for free sharpening, I wish that Global would do the same.
