    I've got one - it was actually PIFed to me as my first hone. They are quite fine, and I have used mine as a touch up hone. I'm quite positive that it is finer than a Norton 8k, so I'd say give it a shot.

    I would suggest lapping it. Even if it looks flat/unused, if it has been used on a Rolls razor, there could be some wear to only the middle section, and who's to say how well lapped they are from the factory.

    Also, be very careful holding it - I know how thin they are, and it would be easy to catch your fingers on the sides and/or ends.
