It's really easy to transform a straight beveler into a rounded beveler, I did it the other day and it took me 10 minutes.

Nice tip on using twine coated with rouge.  Will give that a try for stropping inside the curve.

So you did this with just a twine and rouge or file it first and clean it up with cord/rouge? My last ordered said it “rounded edges” but it too was square. I’m about to give up and go crazy…….

The square ones will still give you a round edge after you burnish it.

hey hey, no no I didn't do it with just the string and green clay, I did most of the work with the file and only then finished with sandpaper and string.

Yes, but depending on the use it can take years.

Thank you Paloma for the pics, I figured this is how you did it. I’ve tried but for some reason I can’t get the angle just right and can’t get it sharp enough to cut clean. I’ll keep picking at it I guess. 
 

Thanks again!

yes you have to persevere and with a good round soft file it should happen.
