Yes good old ebay has now got them check out under barber shop shaving there is a guy from poland selling them one comes with a slurry stone and one with out which is much cheaper.

Yes, all the other eBay sellers want 2x what the retailers sell them for here. But this guy showed up yesterday asking the same price as retailers (as well as international shipping).

Only offers the 6x2 as far as I can tell though, no 8x3. Also claims to have lapped every stone he sells.

Yes thats the one I have and that is the dealer I used.

Yes they only do the 6x2 but that is more than enough and it handles what ever i have thrown at it, in fact I would go to say its even higher grit than this by the way it polishes the edge say a 20K

At the price it was when I bought mine, I was suprised how good it worked and even more so with a slurry made up!

I have used the norton 4/8k and yes it is very good but the price is crazy and to me it is not worth it I would rather spend that on a coticule and the chinese 12K as I could just about get both.

Or a 1/6k combo King + china 12k for laughably cheap.
