Well...another one finished.
It was the neighbor to my test stone so should hone very similarly.

short side 3 3/4"
width across middle is 2 5/8"
Ends are both 3"
Slurried

I bet that is an amazing hone. Great work.
Made a stop and grabbed a piece of a thicker layer from that face my previous hone stone came from today today....very consistent colors and layers and fractures in side you can see where it should easily split into 3 very flat layers for easier lapping (I hope). It's a blueish grey colored stone.

May be the easiest stone ever to lap...it had a couple fractures and has amazingly level layering after prying it apart at the fractures. Just gotta make a couple cuts first....going to make some crazy nice bouts I believe!

I don't know if you are a good illusionist, but that rock looks very easy to work with. I think this batch is looking good.
Nope no illusions here...already got

Looking like this
Attachment 174332
Almost there...
Couple low spots but extra course dmt knocking it out!
Attachment 174335
Pretty sure I can knock 1 out per hour at this rate though...easiest stone I've worked with...pretty hard material but not insane
