I too use a polished honing steel but couldn’t find a smaller compact version I could take hunting. I’ve since put a chainsaw file in a cordless drill and held the flat side of a grinding disc against it while both tools are rotating, then when the grinding teeth are gone I just use varying grits of sandpaper with the drill till polished nicely. Works a treat!!
