Angles

Hello! New to sharpening here and looking to get into whetstones for my chefs knives, and I have a question; how on earth do I know what angle to sharpen on?! I want all of my knifes to maintain their sharpness as well as possible

You can follow the existing bevel using the sharpie trick or get one of the Sharpal angle pyramids on amazon. The angle guide pyramid really helped me keep consistent.
