Last year I tried to set a bevel on a wedge 8/8 (actually, a Chinese vintage razor, the ones that look like a mini hatchet) using Norton 4k. After 30 minutes I could tell this was like flogging a dead horse. I put it away into storage.

Last month I bought myself a DMT1200. Took out the old Chinese hatchet, did some heavy honing on it for 30 mins again and this time managed to set the bevel.

A DMT1200 will set you back about £50. If your budget doesn't run to that, definitely go the wet & dry route.
