Some of you "Stone Guys" might know him, has quite a few apparently German finish stones, the die ocker stein is a red on white streaked stone, man is it PURDY :D!!
Chris says he has larger stones of this type, So, Calling DOORSCH or Hatzicho to see if they know where these might be quarried at so as to get a large one.
I seem to have lost my ability to put pics up off of ebay :thinking:
I can't do pictures either now :shrug:
Thread moved to "Auction Talk".
Try a Linux OS and maybe you'll have better performance ......... :beer2:

Thanks Gents, that is the stone in question. Any of you ever seen another? I have not.
282054574789 auction #.
I have never seen anything that looks like that. Looks unique . :)
Sorry nothing useful i can add here...looks interesting and unique. I can only propose and wish that the seller himself would tell some more details on where the stuff is quarried and hopefully he adds some details....
I've seen agates with similar pattern/look. I don't remember the variety off hand, but I'll research later.
I have bought several stones from Chris. He is a real stand up guy with a love for stones. It has been a pleasure dealing with him and I would buy from him again.
I've found these similar jasper slabs for sale on eBay, the seller refers to them as "Print Stone Jasper"Quote:

A custom made natural hone that has to be soaked for 5 minutes in water? Looks like a roof tile to me.
Wow...looks like the same stuff....Quote:

Sebastian, I did chat with the Gent, he is "Keeping trade secrets" which is Cool, the re-naming so as to sound German whetstone is OUT there a little ways but what can ya do.
I have access to some picture Jasper and had a suspicion,, though the colors are Brown,Tan, Black and some greens.
Hacker7, did you bid to get the stones? or private sale? Thanks.
If I get a nice slab of this stone, I'll call it "My Big Bloody Hone" Going for 3"X10-12" and 3/4" thick. Australia is a place I have friends who we exchange cultural oddities and Rifle parts. :D
and I am checking with the AUS Gent about getting exactly what I want and for a fair price.
Hi Fal, I bid for them. I bought a coticule and a few naturals. Prices were always fair. I did not purchase any of his custom made hones. He did give me one to try and I am pleased with the performance as a pre finisher.Quote:
