Hohenzollern Abziehstein Hone (Droescher)
I got this one here as a stone in a lot along with a labeled Lily White and some Arkansas slip stones. It only had a small patch of label left and I figured I would never know what it was. I contacted Peter (Hatzicho) to see if he would have a lead. While waiting for a response I stumbled on the Hohenzollern Abziehstein label and saw it was a match including the peculiar box and odd size. They all matched and Peter confirmed and provided a link where he gives a history of them. They are Thuringian (see post below for link for more information on it) As an avid Novaculite user I am trying to find a spot for this stone as it is really fun to hone on and it leaves a silky smooth edge. Not a sharp as my hard black Arkansas edges but more comfortable. Even a blind pig........Attachment 291908
