White "Apart" hone
Anybody ever see a white "Apart" hone? The one I see reviewed here obviously isn't white.
APART Barber hone test
If possible, I need a quick answer.

I have heard of one, no idea of quality, sorry.
The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.

Thanked: 4830some of the barber hones were different colors even though they were the same quality. It is believed the the color came from the filler, if memory serves me correct. I have two frictionate hones that are the same except for the color.

Thanked: 4830Nice. Barber hones are the gateway hone that will take you to full blown HAD. You will have a lot of great company though.

I'm just wondering where it's all going to fit in with what I current have. King 1K, Naniwa 3/8K, 12K, CrOx .3...
Any ideas or encouragement would be helpful.
Thanks, Rez.
The kiddie pool cost me less than $20 for each. I know. Expensive right? guess I needed a learnin'.

I lap all(almost all) of my barber hones. I have bought a few on eBay that look as if they are deteriorating. Swelling, delaminating as I would hone with them, I wouldn't try lapping them either.
