For me, wedges taught me the "torque" required in honing. They require a bit more finess to really get the apex. One of my first razors was a 6/8ish wade and butcher that's a tad wonky all over. Best decision I made was to send it to Glen for a honing.
However, I saw some pics of the wedge you are starting with and boy howdy does that look like a challenge. In the same vein that my master's classes in vibration analysis were a challenge.
A good wedge to learn on would be something like a red imp wedge. Stay under $25 bucks on ebay so if you hone it into an awl, it won't be too disappointing.
