Yeah I sharpen them much differently than wider ones
I hold them more in line to the stone, not skewed like Paul teaches with wider ones or plane blades
I only hold the tip down with one finger
I sometimes even work slower or with shorter strokes if it’s by cooperating
They’re easy to tip or apply too much pressure to one side. So try different stances and approaches, take it slow and practice
