    Default Are "3 line" swaty's any good?

    I know the actual 3 lines refers to it having three lines in the brand, but what about the made for America hones that say something along the lines of Franz Swaty The 3 line Hone Razor hone. Are they good too?
    Thanks!

    In my opinion, they work fine, but they are not quite as good as the Swaty.

    Thats what I thought, thanks guys.
    This one for the Record says:
    The Franz Swaty
    3 Line
    Razor Hone
    and my "original" (right term?) says:
    Franz Swaty
    Wharing bei Wein
    (Austria)
