A carving tools question

From: AC (cshouse@optonline.net) | Date: 2003-11-30 13:36:39 UTC-05:00
I've been all over the net this morning, and cannot find thorough directions on how to sharpen my carving tools. I've found directions on the flat blades, but the one I use most often is the Speedball linoleum v gouge blade #1. It's very small and I'm at a loss as to the "how".

Any help or links would be most appreciated.

PS, I checked the speedball site to no avail.
