    I can say with certainty that this Fox stone is NOT a Belgian Blue. Not so much because of the color difference, but because there are no garnets in the Fox stone. Same natural abrasive as other Thuringian stones I have. In fineness, this Fox stone spanks the Belgian Blue by a mile.

    And, according to Sam's opinion, spanks the Eschers as well.

    Sorry, I couldn't help but poke at the Escher collectors a little; must be my tendencies toward instigation.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Correct, no garnets in the Fox razor stone. Silica is the abrasive just as it is in Thuringians.
