    Default Hone ID?

    Gentlemen,

    A friend of mine sent me a hone to try and identify, and I’m fairly sure that it is a Hindostan, but thought that I would ask the good people here for an opinion.

    It appears to be a sandstone, hard and about 4-5k in grit, but it also leaves coarser striae that I estimate to be about 1k by the time it took a good suita to remove them. Scott also said that it would occasionally kick out a bit of grit making it unsuitable for razors but OK on knives and tools.

    Here are the images, any thoughts?
