Thread: Should I take a chance on this hone?

looks for me like a Thurigian as other already mentioned, i would just wait until it arrives. If its a thuri youll be satisfied iam quite shure, and the price for that is size is ok in my point of view.....

If this was ever a Escher or whatever, you shouldnt care because i think you bought to use it, otherwise you would have bought a labelled one ;-)

That’s an awful small hone for the money, especially an unlabeled stone.

I would pass.

Shop the Classifieds. Buy the largest stone you can afford.

I think I'm gonna give it a go fellas. Thank you for all the help. I hope it is in fact a Thuringian and not a junk stone. I'm curious why would the bidding have been so competitive being it could be a boon or bust. Wish me good luck and I will keep you updated on what I found. So far, I have had pretty good luck with mystery stones barring one bad apple. By bad apple I mean a decent 8kish natural hone I grabbed for a buck.
