Clay on 0-1

I've always done a full quench on 0-1. I was wondering if you can use clay to get a hamon or if 0-1 hardens to deeply?
 
The common answer to this question will probably be "No", but I have seen a very active and beautifull hamon on a blade made from O-1. Of course, it wasn done with a torch as opposed to using clay.

I've never been able to get a decent hamon on 0-1. 1095 and w2 are where the hamons live (also 1075 and 1080, 1084)
