Could be a slate type, can you post some more daylight pictures ?
Would you be too upset if that was real YL? Congrats.
Lol. I wouldn't be upset at all. I put a few razors on it after my 8k Norton and it has improved the edge. Fairly slow, but highly polished bevel.
Could be a black Ark? Being he says it's a hard stone. I'm only looking at the pics on my phone so not sure if I'm missing any relevant visual details. BTW what is a "real YL?"
Real YL is one of the original Yellow Lakes (Llyn Melynllyn) not the fakes which are commonly sold in nowadays on bay.
Ah, gotcha.
Ok so a couple of daylight shots. They don't capture the colour very well. This done is much darker than it looks in the pictures. I would describe it as being black, although the pics make it look grey. The darker section on the side view is closer to the real colour.
