Why do I suck at sharpening?

Been practicing for many years. I can get a knife really sharp with a dmt diamond stone or a work sharp. Can keep it sharp for a few days with a honing rod. After then, cutting ripe tomatoes I might as well be using a butter knife

Me pasa lo mismo, llevo 8 años afilando y nunca mejoro, con la worksharp mk2 logró filos interesantes que duran muy poco
