Thanked: 168Hone identification - Jnat , Lin Idwal or what
I get my hands on this extraordinary hone with size 14x5.5 sm .
For the first time i am confused and i am in trouble to tell the grit rating of a hone .
This stone behaves irrational as is medium to hard , but not too hard . when is dry is not shiny , it has mat surface /what the f... is that /
It becames very shiny when whet and it has very rubbery feeling . The feedback is strong as when youre stroping on a black latigo leather .
On the samtime it has a smooth velvet feeling , only that the edge is sucked into the stone .
The slurry began on a 8 - 9 k level and quickly mutates into thuringian like ultra fine slurry . In the beggining it takes metal very good and after 10 min when the slurry darkens it almost stop to cut ??????
The experiments on slurry is that it leaves a harsh and bitty edge , but on lain whater is something diferent .
im pretty quick in the hands so the 100 light strokes are made in a 4 or 5 minutes interval .
Wow , it improves one of my best coticules edge . Even the nasty GD steel that is hard to refine , keep refining the edge after the 150 strokes . It is an thuringian level edge in this moment . I stop , as i was impresed and i didnt know what to do . Usualy the hones that i use have a smal diapazon , and they quickly reach there final capabilitys .
Not a this one q as it continues slowly to improove the edge , as the geometry remains right , no overhoning , no false ant thin edges .
please . can someone tell me , what is that animal , that i have here .
This stone does not fit in a usual behavior of a razor hones , neither looks like one .
Can someone identify it for me please .I never seen such stone , as i have plenty other conventional razor hones .

Whet whater only
