Maybe, I'd like to hear if you try it. I had a big stack of regular sandpaper, and used four sheets total, I guess. If that. It came apart after a while when wet, but it seemed to cut a lot faster. If I had had emery paper I would have tried it.

"I long ago lost a hound, a bay horse, and a turtle dove, and am still on their trail. Many are the travelers I have spoken to concerning them, describing their tracks and what calls they answered to. I have met one or two who had heard the hound, and the tramp of the horse, and even seen the dove disappear behind a cloud, and they seemed as anxious to recover them as if they had lost them themselves." - henry thoreau
