.. Washita
Just a guess: Hindostan from Indiana.?
I know some guys that use them for low-midrange razor work. You could always give it a shot and see how you like it.
Even though I don't use them for razors I love washitas. You'll be hard pressed to find a single stone that's better for knives and tools.
I just released a video of myself using a washita as a bevel setter and then on to mid range. What other stones do you have?
Champion Barber hone and a coticule
