Looks like an Arkansas, my guess would be soft Arkansas.

Try a woodshop..
Sometimes woodworking shops and hardware stores can offer sound advice, and help with testing for you...but you will probably just have to be content with not know exactly what the grit is... but more importantly anyway is how it actually WORKS... try it, you can always go to a higher grit.
