Has anyone sharpened a Lion (mitre) trimmer?

If so, did you achieve the razor sharp edge you needed? If so how? I would like to use the scary sharp system to sharpen my own but need a large guide to get the correct bevel on it. Would I be better off just to have it professionally sharpened for $20?

I do them by freehanded using my stones sideways....but I do planer blades on wet-or-dry paper lightly glued to the jointer table. Just make a jig out of a piece of hardwood and clamp the blade to it in a manner like I show with scraper blades below. Oily tropical hardwood doesn't mess up the paper too bad, and I lube as I go with WD40. The jointer table cleams off nicely with contact cement solvent afterwards.
