Thread: A lot of guys asleep at the ebay controls before...

I can only tell here that the FASO is not a Thuringian Stone. Its a good stone nearly as good as Thuringian Stones but its origin is not in thuringia.

The reconstituted thuringians give quite good edges and work a bit faster then natural stones. If you can get one of the DE blade hones (one side for DE blades, the other for razors) you can get a very good stone for a fair price (10-25€). And yes the Binder can be a problem on those...the material gets brittle...

They are strange to put it mildly. Every time one sells for what they go for I am puzzled. Most older synths are so blah

Stone is in the mail btw. Not expecting a quick delivery coming from Canada. For whatever reason to and from Canada to NYC is always painfully slow. I will put up some better pics in the hone area when I have it in hand.

Not asleep at the wheel. Just tapped out at the moment.

I cant own EVERYTHING you know! Lucky for you my Shlemper did not sell until after you won it!

I threw up unlabeled ones to eat the cost. I got half my cash back so far. Maybe by Sunday I will cost neutralize it. Wasn't planning on buying rocks this fall, but that was just not a normal scenario, especially on modern eBay..

That was that Boker i remembered Keith...

Aah, cool. Wish I still had a worthpoint login

As crap as it is for price research, it was nice for noting packaging variances.

Stone certainly good, I liked it.

Arrived early. Rebranded barber's delight. Here it is next to an Escher bd. Top top top top quality. Tip top of the mountaintop quality... Amazing.
