Ivory Speckled Hone ID?
Found this gone (left) along with some razors but not sure what it is. Wondered if any of you guys might be familiar with it. It is hard and took a while to lap. It's slurry is milky white and dries white like chalk. It's about an inch and three eighths by six and three quarter inches. I put it alongside my Thuri and a Swaty for reference. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Peace,

Looks like a washita..
Did you get slurry from it by using a diamond plate?

IF the side view is layers, it would probably be a Hindustan.

Yeah, the Slurry is off the DMT. I didn't scrub the side to see if it was layered. I've never heard of a Hindustan, but I will check it out. Thanks for the replies fellas.
Peace,
Jim

I would add another vote for Washita.

Under the peak 2008-50 the difference is clear enough:

Those are interesting images. I ran the DMT along the side and there are no layers. Is the consensus washita in that case?
