Thanked: 3222I think the general consensus is that blades in the 3/8 size range were for trimming. I have seen German blades in that size marked as "wiener schaber" literal translation "Vienna scraper", I think. IIRC those blades were shoulder less.
Yes, if you wanted to hone one with tape you would have to half the tape. Even with a 4/8 razor in a heavier grind you might have to half the to hone.
Blades 4/8 and smaller are a pita to hone and strop.
