Another budget Chinese(??) finishing hone
I wanted to create a standalone post for this hone. A previous post took a turn and someone mentioned this hone:
Home Beyond Natural Green Polish Oil Stone Knife Sharpener M99G 10000# Whetstone
I purchased one just for how it looked LOL and was pleasantly surprised with the performance. It came lapped really close to flat and had a fine coating of oil on it. I cleaned it up and lapped it on my 400/1000 CKTG diamond plate and then followed up with a well-worn piece of 1000 grit w/d sandpaper.
It provided a very crisp clean edge and the scratch pattern looks to be between 10-12K. Not quite as fine as my PHIG (CH12K) but still very nice and very capable of a one pass shave.
As long as they can keep providing consistent rocks, this could be a very good value finisher.
