Thread: Rozsutec anyone?

Henk Bos has some information on the Roszutec stones.

It can be found on page 111.

That’s a really good site you’ve sent there. The only problem is the desire to source and buy one of each!

Yes, and a few of those are relatively local to you.
Enjoy your Roszutec, I have one but haven't used it much yet. I've been playing with a Dalmore Blue and a Quartzite hone.

I’ve been using a Vermio for as a finisher and have also a small Oozuko, but the Vermio is the stone I have been relying on the most, usually after a synthetic 8K or a coticule. I’d be interested in your experience with the Roszutec.

My experience has been mostly surface prep so far, it comes nice and flat but is a hard stone.

I have a Roszutec scythe stone. I only use it for prepping the blade for heavy brush cutting. I have a few other scythe hones that are more fine. I would estimate as a razor hone that it would be on the more coarse end of the finishing spectrum.

I don’t have a microscope so the analysis will be in the shave that the stone produces. That said, there will still be the enjoyment of experimenting....

I’ve just been googling Eidsborg, the idea of honing a razor with a stone used by Vikings is childishly cool!
