Hi all,
I've come across a set of 6 IBEX bronze planes all with round soles. They are similar to these from Woodcraft but all of mine have round soles. They are used for carving the soundboard of an instrument such as a violin or archtop guitar.

I'm familiar with sharpening regular planes blades but these are a bit different. Anyone here who can give some tips on sharpening these blades? Thanks!
