A Neener Rather than a Gloat
I don't know if those terms are universal, but gloat is when you dig something out of the woodwork for pennies, and neener is less good, meaning you bought at market price. This is a neener.
I'm a huge fan of Arkansas stones as a reasonable option price wise that can hone with any natural hone. But I wanted some big ones that cover the entire width of a razor and treated myself to two dans 10x3 full thickness stones. Bar none, the best black stones I have ever used vintage or new, and the best trans stones on the market being cut now. You rub a prefinished razor on them and its sharp no matter what method you use when doing the rubbing.
(wow, that's a bad picture - couldn't see the extent of the top being cut off on the phone. Several more, but posted full size)
