    Default What hone might this be ?

    Bought this piece of rock in a brocante shop in coticule county last week - was full of grime and dirt so I guessed this wld be a coti...
    it was packed in its original cardboard box with no markings at all
    Cleaned it yesterday and lapped it... It is incredible hard and it was eating 80 / 120 grit paper with little effect
    anyway I managed to have it lapped - not a coti at all cause it absorbs as hell and the back looks like carborundum with a
    color from brownish orange to grey
    the upper side looks yellowish with reddish particles
    no markings on the stone (150 mm L x 50 mm W x 25 mm H)
    checked some old threads and was wondering if this cld be a frictionite (without any markings ?)
    thanks for helping me outName:  IMG_1190.jpg

    It seems to be like a norton synthetic combo, with a low grit and and a very low grit. 200/1000 ? Good to remove teeth then make a new bevel.
