Hand Plane Sharpening

So I’m a newb to the whole hand plane thing and could use some help. I just bought a used Stanley No. 5, a Defiance No. 1244, and a Stanley No. 110 block plane. They were all in pretty good condition, but obviously the need to be tuned and sharpened. What stone(s) would you recommend for sharpening? I’m thinking diamond stones, but I also don’t want to spend a fortune either.
