Hi. I have only used shavettes so far & have never honed, stropped etc. I was just given this stone found by a friend in an op shop/thrift store. Is this an appropriate stone to use on a straight? I have no other info except Five tiger silicon carbide Germany combination stone. Any info would be great.
Thank you
People probably don't have an answer but, just in case it's a time-zone thing, *bump
Can you show us a pic? That may help some.

Wouldn't let me post pics yesterday. Don't know what's changed. Anyway, here it is. Thanks for looking.
From the side that is showing, I would have my doubt as to whether or not this is intended for razors. Looks to be to course IMO.
That stone is not suitable for razors. Made more for tool sharpening.
Great. Thank you very much. I had no idea & my friend, who gave it to me, didn't either.
+ 1,,,,but a nice gift anyway,,,
