Picked up a 2 line Swaty a few months ago really cheap at a flea market. Best thing ever for touching up a razor that you work so hard getting a nice edge on. 5-10 quick laps, a good stropping and the whiskers just run away!
Enjoy your find and put them to good use!

Very nice. Have heard good things about those barber hones. Almost pulled the trigger on one but figured I should improve my skill with the razor first before trying to hone[emoji2]

Picked up a 3 line Swaty a while back but didn't use it until recently, in fact I forgot I had it. I used it to touch up a couple of razors and the results were like they first came off the hones. I wish I had discovered that sooner, could have saved some time re honing a few razors that just needed touching up. Worked up some William's lather, brushed some on the hone, gave it 10-15 passes, stropped them and the blades shaved like new again.
