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.

belt sander removes too much material very quickly

Variable speed and fine grit. I have used the one I linked a ton to sharpen all sorts of tools. Also it's literally listed as a tool sharpener.
