I have a couple of Aoto stones. They can have inclusions that need to be lapped out. They pop up at various times.
Sandpaper is much faster.
Just my $.02,

Well, you know quartzite is metamorphosed sandstone and should be the same hardness as quartz 6.5- 7 on the mohs scale. I would imagine it would perform very similar to my beryl Hone which is around 7.8-8 on the mohs. I thought the beryl was a good polisher but not good in the lower grits.

Tried a Solinger blade with little effect.
A Sheffield silver steel just laughs at it.

After that short look I'd say the hone doesn't cut wax.
