Another Flea Market Barber Hone!
Went to the covered Bridge Festival in East central Indiana & picked up a "Clearcut" barber hone Strop Combo. for $4.00. It's made by the Geo. Worthington Co. of Cleveland Ohio. It is nice & flat with just a couple of fixable dings on one edge. The strop is glued on the back side of the hone. It is about 1/16" thick & very fine smooth leather. There is a 3/16" pad between the strop & hone. Didn't get a box so I am going to make one for this hone. Anyone else have one of these? Sorry no Pics. yet.

I have a Clearcut, but it does not have a strop backing,,,, sounds like you got a nice one.

Little update This hone seems softer & quicker cutting than either my Bickett or my John Primble razor hones.
