Default “Easing” a binding edge

On my first guitar build, the binding edge is sharp-ish, due to scraping it flush with the sides/top. It digs into my arm a bit more than I’d like.
Looking at a couple of my other (purchased) guitars, the edge is just slightly radiused. One other amateur builder I spoke to said that edge gets smoothed out by the buffer during the buffing process. As I don’t do a buffing process, obviously I’ll have to do something else - likely grab a file and break that edge. What is commonly done?
