Maybe wrong thread but..
There are. 2 Faso hones for sale on Australien eBay.

One 8 and one 5 inch.
8h left and hardly any bids.
I wish i had a 8" instead of 6"

If sombody gets it it would be nice sharing experience.

Too bad neither seller ships outside Australia.

**Frameback** · 05-27-2012, 08:19 PM

Well an aussie can get them

**rmalak** · 05-27-2012, 08:40 PM

Too right. I hope someone here gets one. They look great.

Facos I think. Related, but another label.

Oldengaerde...your right of course! I think it was a case of the 'eye wanting to see what the eye wants to see'...my stone definitely says 'Facos'. Good eye my friend!

Any more information on the edges this stone produces?

**deighaingeal** · 11-23-2012, 01:01 AM

The FASO edges I've gotten are quite sharp. Possibly as sharp as the best of the Japanese stones. They don't seem as smooth though. I haven't spent as much time with my hone as I need to figure it out fully. I may spend some time on it during my holiday next month. th

One of these just sold on ebay. I had my bid in at $90 and couldn't go any higher. Sold for $96
