Global/Minosharp system usable for SE?

I have a 3 water stone Minosharp system that works wonders for my kitchen knife.

There's a store, not far from me that has one razor left (made in Germany, looks like a 6/8 or more) for a good price so I've been wondering if apart from a strop I could get by with the Minosharp system for this razor. What do you think?
 
No, you'll ruin the razor and rip up your face. Knives are sharpened with about 1,000 grit and you'll need a minimum of 8000 grit to shave off of.
 
Not to mention, that those wheel type sharpeners put a lot of twisting stress in the edge where it contacts the separate wheels. Fine for a kitchen knife as it is so thick, but would likely chip a hollow ground razor beyond repair.
