I'm getting an Ibex round convex finger plane.
I'm wondering how do I sharpen that tiny curved plane blade?
Any tips?
Thanks,
Chris Nielsen

With your hand. Hold the blade so that it's at about the bevel you want on a sharpening stone. Then don't think about it, just flick your wrist back and forth. The minute you think about it, you'll screw it up. Just go with the flow, it's all in the wrist.
