Thread: Some hones you may want to have a look at...

Glad to be of service. I just felt that these had to be some good stones and wanted straight users to end up with them over some collector that will just let them sit around or worse...broken.

Someone just bought it, Im gutted. I was in the process of working out a deal with Mac as he doesn't ship worldwide, had a deal and it got swiped. Damn it

That's why I didn't hesitate to pull the trigger on the Charnley Forrest. I'm still happy as a lark and don't have it in hand yet!!

Deal schmeal Manchester. Don’t shun the frumious Bandersnatch. Yes. I got it. You guys have all the sweet stuff anyway, I’m just playing “catch up”. At least a fellow SRPer got it. I know a couple guys on this side of the pond that will give it a proper evaluation. If it’s what I think it is, it’s worth much more. Bow chicka-wow-wow.

Yeh you're right. We do have all the sweet stuff. Aside from having the world's best football team I'll admit to having locally sourced more than one Charnley Forest for £25.

That's a great stone you have and I'm certain it is worth alot more. I hope you enjoy using it.

On the plus side I'm in a way glad I didn't purchase a J-nat and risk rendering all my other hones useless.

I just hope you are buying it to use & not to make a dollar off of...

I understand your concern, but I prefer to give folks the benefit of a doubt, until they prove otherwise. It’s best not to judge people, even if you think you know them.

I am not judging you, nor do I pretend to know you. I "know" absolutely no-one here on the forum & it's not my place to judge. I am just being hopeful, that is all...

Anyone know how good a finisher it is? I know it is far more versatile than a Charnley or an Escher as one could use a slurry on that Asagi and go from 8K say to the final finish, but purely as a finisher? Just how good are they?

I heard at a US razorcon a Charnley out finished all the J-nats that were present. I know there is variation amongst Charnleys and I can vouch for that myself, but has anyone felt edges of both?
