I done woodwork for somewhat 50 years, furniture and boats etc...I sand my blades every time I change rubbers.Rubbers are comoressible, wood is not. If you sand ba hand you are creating pitting where you fingers are. Good 0.2-0.3 (single layer of 3d printed object, that's the closest reference i have) damage happened when clubmate sanded the face of the blade.
I would say it is a good practice to just use a block of wood or other relatively straight block.
Never had a problem. Where I want to take off a lot of material I use a block. To take something like old glue off it doesn't matter...
If it is convenient I would use a block otherwise not...
