Thread: Just arrived!

First barber hones.



The Apart is BLACK NOT WHITE as the ebay seller's picture looked(reflection?). But it looks appropriate to the box. I couldn't tell which side is smoother, so I picked one and started lapping. Still lapping.

The Durahone is inward curved along the length of the hone and is balsa wood light.

The swaty is a 2 line, I believe and is in great shape with its own box and two signatures and dates(1910 and 1918). I can't tell if the sides are different in grits or not.

Pretty noticeable weight for the Swaty and Apart considering their size.

Thanks for looking(as I type with kung-fu, lapping affected fingers)
