I am not sure that is meant to be a base edge file. For you side edge it looks correct.

Most of the file guides are for the side edge and not the base. There are some that are designed to sharpen the base edge though.

In this 2nd picture using this tool, how do you keep the file from going too far into the base and strip off ptex from the base?
