Thanks and excuse my bat English!

I don't believe they're Charnley's. I have one that's identical to your's. (160x60) right down to the brown/rust colored swirls. It's very similar to the Chinese 12k. A friend of mine in Hong Kong sent it to me. It's a bit better than the run of the mill C12s.

And they are very, very hard. It did take some time to lapp, and I used a DMT XX, followed a DMT C

I'll try to post pics when I can.
