Thread: Any thoughts on the new "La Lune"?

The reintroduced La Lune's have been out for awhile but I haven't seen any mention... I was curious if anyone got their hands on one and had any thoughts.

HAD is a b****. Still regretting not ordering an Apache Strata when I had the chance...

I notice they are available in North America from Griffiths Shaving Goods.

I am seriously trying to combat my HAD.

I’m also incredibly curious about these stones.

Gosh darn it, somebody buy one already!



I will probably get one mid to late June, after I arrive in Japan.

On order, just hit Queens NY.

Do you remember stroking my HAD a few days ago David?

I think you should buy a La Lune, you need one. How can you even sleep knowing that you can't hone properly without one.

Go on , buy one, buy one, you need one, buy one

Just to put all rumours to rest, I did not stroke or touch Steve’s HAD in any way.

I have enough trouble managing my own.

Hi. I'm Paul, and I have H.A.D.

I ordered a "La Lune" stone from the website (www.1stone.fr/categorie-produit/pierres-1stone/)
on April 12th.

It was shipped from France (via La Poste Francais) on April 14th.

It arrived here today (May 1st), via USPS, all in good order.

Nicely wrapped with tissue paper and twine



Cute little seal

The stone and rubbing stone

Dry stone

Wet with water



A brownish slurry, made with the rubbing stone, in about 10 seconds



The color of the stone in the photos is not quite true. It has a purplish hue, and very much
resembles a 3-line Swatty. The working surface is very smooth, but there are some very faint
saw marks. It feels perfectly smooth, but it could perhaps use a bit of burnishing...or maybe
just a bit of use.

We'll see how it hones.

Question: What should I use to seal the trademark emblem?

Nice looking stone. Some of the links don't seem to work for me ???? Just thought I'd let you know.

By the way, I can't remember who it was who said: "If it's Alcoholics Anonymous, why is it that the first thing they want you to do is to say your name"?

Here again are the photos. Hope it works this time.
