    Seems to me that there are a lot of opinions and conclusions regarding the stone. Like Vasilis says, most of them here and a good number on other forums were negative. Besides, the stone is no longer visible on the site which brought it to mention - that must tell us volumes...

    As other posts have revealed, some considerable time ago at that, there were stones from this region available way back when that were held in high regard, but which were virtually useless unless used as a very final finisher after having put a layer of tape on the spine especially for finishing with one of these antique hones.

    That the name was borrowed by Olivia (Antje Meier) for the hones supplied by her brother (Manfred) from those antique hones is more or less established, but they share only the name, not the legend.

    Regards,
    Neil
