Thread: ID Help Please

I imagine it would be extremely difficult if not impossible to tell from a picture, but it can't hurt to ask.

I picked this hone up for $20 at an antique store. All the guy had to say was that it was "really old". It seems to be very fine and extremely hard. I tried lapping it off and on for 2 days with wet/dry sandpaper and the progress was so painstaking I'm giving up for now until I can get a DMT.

The stone was a dark gray/blue but when I started lapping it it turned very light gray.









Any input is appreciated.
