Simply flip the mug and gently draw the knife against the unglazed ring at the bottom. This method works because the surface mimics a stone.
Take a smooth paving stone, clean it thoroughly, and run the blade across, alternating sides. Make sure the stone is damp to reduce friction.
Take two knives and slide the edge of one against the spine of the other. This may not give you the desired sharpness, but it can be a quick fix.

Yes, you can even use a nail file to sharpen your knife. Place the file on a flat surface and gently run the knife blade. It works like magic!

A whetstone is a dedicated tool for sharpening knives. Hold the knife at a 20-degree and draw it across the stone, moving from heel to tip.
