If you haven't a handy leather belt, stropping the blade against denim jeans can work well, too.

Mik's right!
I was shown by Dave Budd, a professional knife maker, that even your skin can revive a sharp edge if you stroke your thumb across the edge [not along it!] at 90 degrees to it.
This isn't recommended unless you've enough experience and common sense to ensure your safety.
For the inexperienced user, a belt will work perfectly.
