I just kept a candle burning near the work area and would put the blade in the flame for a few secs every couple of cuts. It worked pretty well for me and if memory serves they even suggest it on the instructions somewhere.

That is in the instructions and I was planning to try it. a candle sounds like a fine heat source (my initial inclination was a cup of boiled water)...I'll try it instead!
