I have one and it works well.  I use the middle hole, which is 25 degrees, recommended by ashby.  It takes a while to lower the angle, then I finish with a light wetstone then a ceramic stick.  Works good for me.

One other tip for ya, I have two thin honing stones glued to the other sides of the file block. (bought at a local machine shop). They allow me to get a wicked wicked edge on my Magnus heads.
