paddle tip protection

I would like to glass the tip (about 2 inches or so) of the greenland style paddle I am making. Any tips on getting a clean, sharp edge where the glass ends on the paddle face. I was thinking of using masking tape where the cloth stops but figured that the resin will soak right thru.
