Thanks for the info Sham. I have sort of lost interest in getting one. If I happened onto a vintage Turkey oil stone and it lived up to the press of 100 years ago I wouldn't pass it up but I am trying to get to know the stones I already have before adding more to the mix.

Sham of course is right; this is what happened in transit to a narrow one of mine - and I'm probably lucky it's just a corner:

I'm very happy about mine.
It does cut
- into polished surfaces
- hard steels
- very shallow but effective.
Polishing out what it has done is easy with an Arkansas or a finer Thuringian.
Wouldn't want to miss it.

wow great Point +5 on this.your head is working brother.(or maybe mine doesn't work right)
Very Very fast cutter . makes me confuse how sharp edge gets but still have saw tooth.

Sham it probably also sharp between the teeth.
Like a flint stone arrow head.

i used say sharp level i would say app 6k but i think i am off a litlle..sharpening level should go more then that.i used think if sone makes saw tooth then it should be courser.seems like turkey oil stone proves i am wrong on this. I have to accept my mistake
