I have access to an Optical Comparator at work, and have measured the angle of Durham Duplex blades (8 degrees) - and can now make a shim to match the angle for stoning - If you can send me a Valet blade, I can do the same measurement.
 
I have never had any luck getting a Valet blade sharp enough to shave with. The single edge hones are supposed to work but I find it takes too much work. I have three very nice Valet strops and two se hones and a bunch of nos blades. For me it has become more of a novelty rather then a viable shaving alternative. Good luck. I hope you succeed.
