About me. I happen to know a thing or two about stones too & have the experience to back it up. I've shared my edges & stones with many. Lastly, I'm quite to the point. Just check around...
You have to understand, we have seen a LOT of so called new magical stones appear that are supposed to be as good as a Escher/thuringian...guess what, they weren't. Closest thing I have seen that has come close to any claims is the G20 & I haven't gotten rid of my Eschers...but I do like it.
Now to cut to the chase, you guys are ranting on about how wonderful of a stone it is. You reference several natural stones I know of & have experience with & gotten rid of. To a point it seems like you are indirectly trying to market it. I give you a option to get a pro's review of the stone and I get stonewalled. Anyone who questions the validity of this stone gets stonewalled.
If this is a "looky what I found & am having fun with thread", then cool. If you are trying to help market this stone, then quit as I would hate to see a person new to honing to try their first natural only to be frustrated so much they give up. We here on SRP try to help one another, which is noted in my first post on this thread.
