BTW. Nice find Richard!

I agree, if a person don't look, they don't score...even on the 'bay. I average about 4 decent stones a year. That said, I do put on a lot of miles. I like to drive and antiquing gives me a reason. Getting to the point that I leave razors there and some stones also.

Agreed - like this labelled y/g Escher I won from UK eBay last week, for the normal price of these stones, got this one with box (which I just finished repairing) slurry stone, 6 x 2 x .5, very cheap by this stones standards, just finished lapping it, beautiful bright colour, I figure the listing name was too long and "straight razor" was spelled incorrectly - the deals are out there, you just have to be prepared to hunt, which is most of the fun IMO.
