Post a link so we can look at it, please.
** Chauny Monpa ** water hone/sharpening stone ** The Razor Grit ** | eBay
This thing? Looks like a piece of granite. Suspect from where I sit, doesn't look like something I'd want to finish my razor on. But I could be wrong.
Yeah that's it
I would not put my precious razors on that brick.
** 14 000 grit approximation ** ** Fineness of Novaculite **
Chuany monpa aka....Chunky Monkey...

:rofl2:
I find it very suspect. I filed through a few of the stones advertised and one of the pictures had a stamp reading "Medium Grain"
If that means what I think it does, 14k and "like an Arkansas stone" are a stretch. Then again, Norton rates their translucent/black Arkansas stones as something like a 6k stone so...hard to say from nothing but a picture.
:shrug:
CHIG is probably too close to PHIG. Also CHIG would be mistaken for Chinese Hone of Indeterminate Grit. Keep brainstorming, heh. How about Canadian Rock of Awesome Power - C.R.A.P. - although we really should withhold judgement until someone actually tries them out, heh.
