something interresting comming my way :)
ok, I'm kind of excited, so far I've been used to my coticule edge and only experimented with the Welsh tri hone set as an alternative but to my experience so far the Dragon Tonge is just a smooth slightly duller coticule edge and AJ's 15K Gray stone is simple to sharp for me or at least not smooth enough or maybe I just still haven't figured this stone out (the LM I haven't done much with it jet)
the reason I haven't turned to thuringian hones is simply the $$ one needs to spend to obtain one
now this one is comming my way for €22 and I'm kind of excited

it's a small hone 3 X 15 cm (~1"X6") but I feel comfortable with that since I learned to hone on a 4X10 cm coticule
I'm hoping this stone will give me an edge that is sharper but still smooth

Mhh doesnt look like a Special Stone on the first look, but youll see when it arrives...it should be one ;-)
By the way, why are thuris expensive? This is coming up several times, especially unlabelled ones are easy to get, also there are people around selling nice stones.
If youre comfortable with smal stones you could also get a smal thuri for about 30-40us...
