I am not even sure how old that knife is, it was a cheap one.  Bought a Mister Twister several years ago expecting it to croak, but new one is still in package.  Have sharpened the old knife a couple time but it still works great.   The only use for a 12 volt knife is if you simply don't have any AC electricity available.

I bought one of the little diamond knife sharpeners, it has folding handles and is tapered more like a diamond grit ice pick.  Simply run the length of the sharpener through each serration, it starts in the center and sharpens out to the points.  Takes a few minutes but will make a big difference.  Shouldn't take but a few passes on each serration, of course there are two blades.  So while not a major exercise, for me it requires my reading glasses and a little patience.  Also I found out if you over sharpen them and make really sharp points on the serrations the blade has a tendency to catch on bones and even go through the spine easily, so only 2 or 3 strokes per serration should make a big difference.
