Thanked: 44I have used a wicked edge in the past (not mine) on a couple of kitchen knives and while its not my cup of tea (i still much prefer free hand) i must say that it did work very well. The way it works does allow you to follow a curve in the blade so that in itself would not be an issue with the set up
My main concern would be, been able to set a low enough angle on the bevel (if the angle is indeed a major issue) and been able to control the pressure on the blade. The pressure IMO would be the hardest thing to control, i think you could get the angle low enough, the stones would only just have to clear the spine.
I don't think any of the commercial jigs allow for the low angles on a razor, i may be wrong here but i don't recall ever seeing a jig that goes lower than 15 degrees (30 inclusive).
