The diamond plates they recommended that go for $16-$22 on Amazon have worked really well for me as general purpose sharpeners for knifes and scissors

You're way better off getting the King 1000. It's the best value all-around quality synthetic stone made. You won't want to grind out chips with it, but it will eventually set a bevel if needed. If you start with a sharp knife, it will keep it in great shape. $28. https://www.amazon.com/KING-Grain...r=8-6&th=1
If you don't want to mess with soaking your stone, get the Shapton Pro 1000. Just splash water on top and get sharpening. The case doubles as a stand. Well worth the few extra bucks for the convenience and stand. At least as good as the King above, too. https://www.amazon.com/Kuromaku-C...r=8-1&th=1
Alternatively, you could go with something Diamond. The edge won't be as refined - it's more "toothy" because diamonds leave more scratches on the blade apex. But that's great for jobs like cutting tomatoes and it'll still work well for all around cutting. The Sharpal 168H offers 325 and 1000 grit plus an angle guide to help teach you consistency. This will put a bevel on a dull blade in a reasonable time and get you a nice fine edge on kitchen knives. Mid-range quality on the diamond bonding and flatness. Should last you for many years, and I think my overall best pick for a beginner: https://www.amazon.com/SHARPAL-16...F0aWM&th=1
Don't be intimidated by learning freehand sharpening. It's not that difficult. Just approach the task as making the knife better than it was before, and you'll be successful. There are some great Murray Carter vids on YouTube on how to sharpen knives. Look for the older ones.
And remember - a crappy, sharp knife is more enjoyable to use than a premium knife that has no edge!
It sounds like you want to do sandpaper or lapping film? That sounds like Scary Sharp type sharpening. In that system, you basically use 80 - 2000 grit sandpaper (or the equivalent in lapping film, which is rated in microns), backed by something really flat. Aim for like 6 levels in this spread. It doesn't matter too much what you use, so long as it's pretty evenly spaced out.
For backing, I was able to get some clearance porcelain tile pieces for some of my pieces. Granite is often used. Another option is plates of glass. I asked my local glass shop if they could make me some 9 x 5 ish pieces out of waste on the cheap, and a couple of weeks later they called me up with more than I really needed...but at a price so nice I had to take them all. My fault for not requesting a quantity.
Overall, lapping film is not as durable as high quality sand paper and more expensive. Cheap sand paper is not worth messing with.
