I've always had a knack for filing, sharpening and grinding. One of my current hobbies is restoring old straight razors. The takes a really steady hand and a lot of patience to hone one. But once you get it right it's an awesome shave. Kinda like square filing. The first time it wasn't great after that I don't use a round file for chisel chain anymore. I even change the angles depending on the wood I'm cutting.

I've filed away a bunch of chain just trying different things. I always have liked filing even if I can use a power tool to do it I'll still use a file.
