Well normally I enjoy lapping a stone, it's part of the honing process. But today, something a little different arrived in the mail. I was the lucky winner of an SRD extra select grade vintage coti.

As you can see, on the one hand we have SRD stamps,

on the other, a dished stone.

I figured I'd touch up another recent acquisition, an unknown early cast steel razor, and the result was great.

It's a small stone, 6x1.5, but worth every cent. So I figure, I'll use it for touch ups and finishing and try to keep the stamps on, but one day, I might have to bring out the Atoma.
What would you guys do?
