How "quality" are we talking? From what I understand, a no-shit Nakayama whet stone will run you about a grand. If you're just out to sharpen a knife that will be used outside of the kitchen, I would recommend a Lansky-style system ($20) or the Spiderco Sharpmaker ($50). If you've got money to burn, check out Edge Pro ($100).
