    A 1/4" thick yellow side will last you a very long time. Good find!

    Thanks, I was wondering about how long it will last.

    Or dear Lord help me, I think HAD has its icy grip on me at last.

    It will last your lifetime and then some.

    My record to date for the lowest price I've paid for a coticule (a natural combo) is $8. It's a great feeling I tell ya.

    ...and they go for a lot of money retail or on eBay - you basically got a steal! Great job (and jealous me...).

    Its kind of funny that I passed on a swaty at the same place this summer. I couldn't stop thinking about missing out on that deal so I went back 3 mos. later and the swaty was gone. I was bummed until i saw the belgian, even though I didn't know what it was at the time. It would have nice to have both I guess, but I am super happy with this hone.

    Wow Chris you did better than I did!!! I did not think it was possible.

    Damn, my personal best is a $12 coticule combo... I knew I should have talked the seller down!

    Wow, that looks nice. It could be a coticule glued to a belgian blue!
