This just cant be
Please tell me that some one is playing a joke on this seller, or he is trying to play one on everyone else. There is just no way you could sharpen anything on this

I cant seem to see a flat enough spot to hone a pen knife blade let alone anything else

I thought it was a dinosaur egg at first. Upon further examination, I recognize that it is a glazed potato fossil

No, that's the kind of thing that clears a swimming pool from swimmers really fast.

Description
I have been told that this red clay bar is a razor hone and it may be a rare hard to find hone. It was hand formed with wet clay and you can see that it is was hand formed with a persons hands.
Um, no. That was formed by a COLON.

That's a different method of sharpening a razor. See, you pound the razor to shaving sharpness.

This must be made by the same acme brand that made the looney tunes stuff.
In other words, it's a joke.
All jokes aside though, it looks like it might be good for honing my soap to pass the HHT

The listing was pulled early. Did anyone share their opinion with the seller? I considered doing so but have usually found it to be a waste of time.
