I've been trying to teach myself to hand cut dovetails in wood and have been looking my straight chisels over.

Over the years with a lot of sharpening they have lost the hollow ground. Do you guys restore (or not remove) the hollow grind?

I do not have one of those roller things for chisels or plane blades just have always done it free hand. Do I need one?
