I was wondering if any of you could tell me what kind of stone this was. I have been trying to flatten it, but seems to be a hard job. It just keeps eating away the sandpapers... It does not seem to get enough of p200, 320 and 400.
Is it worth flattening at all? I did not plan to use it on razors, rather on knives, but I am sure you know better!
Its a Scythe stone for grass cutting Scythes
Or half of one They are verry hard & used dry

Oops... :p
Are they any good? It seems pretty smooth. Or shall I just put it away, and keep in a drawer as a "relic"?
I don’t think it would be useful for razors, too coarse.
If it had been an oilstone then it could be used for getting small chips out before using a finer water stone

I think I am gonna use it to sharpen the kitchen knives, and look for some decent water stone to sharpen my razor - e. g. Norton 4k/8k.
Thanks for your advice!
No probs, If you go to the Honing section You will find all the info you need.Quote:
