    Default You Want $500 Dollars For THAT ???? SOLD

    Yup. Five centuries and this remarkable vintage Natural Belgian Coticule can be yours. Note the pink/yellow mottled appearance of the generous supply of honing stone. Dimensions are 11&3/4" long, 2&5/8" wide, 1&3/8 thick. Weighs in at just a hair under 5 pounds. They aren't normally found this large, and this is a first class hone. I'll include a small slurry stone not pictured. These photos were taken today, 3-1-2017, by me. The first is with dried slurry all over it, the next wet from my rinsing the slurry off, than sides and bottom, finally a dry shot.

    Shipping will be actual cost depending on destination.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I appreciate the offer Richard, but I'm looking for the celebrated long green (cash) instead of the light green ........

    Long green....
    That is a loooong arss stone. I hope it's a good old vien. Doesn't look like it though, has that semi-transparent light yellow mushy look. The deep yellow ones seem to be the best. But then again, I don't know a whole lot about them to be certain. I would surely get a MBG.

    Well, if you DO accept LONG green cash I could print some up for you in exchange for that hone. How long do you want it to be? I can make it up to 11 inches long.

    No matter how long you print it Ron, it won't last long once I have it ........
