While sharpening and polishing side edges and in order to cut the metal side edge only, the sidewall material needs to be planed or back-filed. Otherwise the cutting tool will get clogged with the sidewall material and reduce the efficiency and possibly the accuracy of the desired bevel. A sidewall planer, cutter or an edge guide (dedicated or multi-angle) with a steep angle and panzer or coarse file can used to clear the edge and provide a smooth side.
