ID old hone
I found this today at an antique shop with the box for $26. Can you guys help me ID it? I took the risk because it was cheap. The stone is heavy and very hard. It's a little over an inch thick. I'm working on getting it flat. The color is very light tan, like sand.

You'll has to send that to me for full inspection.
(this is another reason to have a drawer full of "reject" projects a/k/a ROCK TESTERS!)
Or spoon test it against your other rocks, no lapping required. You may find out all you need to know there.Buttery Goodness is the Grail

Does not look like it was oiled? Is it an Arkie?
