How do I sharpen carving gauges? (feddit.de)

I have multiple gauges with varying curvature. I fear that if I use a flat stone, the curvature might get irregular.

veeeeery carefully

jokes aside, an outside radius you can do without a problem on a flat stone, on an inside radius either get yourself a round stone, or wrap sandpaper around a dowel
