Not sure,
from the sides I would say - could be a thuringian - but the view on the end does not fit for a thuri.
How hard is the stone? Can you post some pictures wet and the surface more detailed!
Now that is a stone! I await hatzicho's verdict but I will bet you have a 12k+ finisher.

Ok here they are. Easy slurry whitish colorAttachment 180447Attachment 180448Attachment 180449Attachment 180450
that's a beautifull stone there ;)
But I have no idea aboout if it's a thuringien hone or not...
Hard to say from the pix. Bottom line is it either delivers the goods or it doesn't ....... whatever you name it. :gl:
I have a few named George! the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. No history but fine finishers!
Check the hone for acidity. One of mine is very acid using the local well water, and will really show up any pits with bright orange in a few passes. On it I use water with baking soda in it. Keeps the corrosion down. Now I use it on all my hones when not using tap water directly. I learned from a Japanese blade article.
YMMV

I don't know but that is a huge lump of rock
Nice score if it's a finisher & just halved the laps required LOL
