Here is one similarly labeled:

Nice box, do you have pics of the stone itself? Also the welcome razor hone looks like great potential...

The Choice Razor Hone box isn't mine. I was just looking for a similar label to the one on my stone on the internet to figure out what the rest of my label would say.

Oh I am sorry, like the rocks... I bought a Wyoming Razor Hone (coti) that was marketed by the Robeson company, the box looks similar.. was hoping to compare the stones... lol...

I have a wyoming robeson. Kind of looks like the ones in the La Rose boxes tend to. It is fast.

Thanks for the pics. mine looks different has a mottled look. Just bought it off the bay, I don't have pics with me they are on my home computer. the item number is 152826019933 if you are interested in looking otherwise I will try and post some tonight after I get home...
Matt.

It's a good looking stone, seems a bit different. Mine is really quick on slurry.

To be honest I haven't had time to put steel on it yet. I am just getting back into honing again, I stopped a couple of years ago when my wife passed away. I am just starting to get a HHT again finally, so I have been only using my synthetics to get my stroke back. I am soo ready to get on the naturals again.
I have been collecting the whole time, I think I purchased a choice coti from you a while back off the bay. you still have the other one for sale looks like.

Here is one of those boxed coticules.

In my experience, the very light almost whitish coticules that are completely featureless like that (the yellow part of the stone having no pattern like woodgrain or etc. I mean) are outstanding stones. The pinkish/reddish hued ones are usually very fast also. I only have a handful of coticules left but the good ones are fantastic.
