No Glow, but it keeps my feet warm at Night

Got the scratches, how does it look?



Hard to see with the camera, but it looks like a mirror at a shallow angle.


There are some small cracks in the face. I can see them, but not feel them. Should I bother with glue?

That stone looks really pure to me, the small cracks might catch your razor edge but that does not necessarly me it will harm the edge. Any object will prove itself with some constant use. Don't bother with the glue yet, hone up 5 or 10 razor and then you will learn more about your stone. I looks like a winner to me. Good luck,

It looks great! It's ready for razors. If you see tiny stress cracks or whatever they may be that you can't feel with a fingernail, I wouldn't worry about them, they're unlikely to catch and ding an edge.
