The cobblers heelshave is a beautiful little tool really well made. New blades are VERY rare though in my experience. Never had any trouble sharpening mine with a rounded wet stone used to sharpen wood carving gouges.
If you don't have a blade it is possible to have one made by someone using spring steel of the right gauge.
