For ax guys, particularly in Australia, it is the equivalent of an Escher yellow/green or a really large vintage natural Belgian coticule to a razor honer. I don't know what it does that a current synthetic wouldn't do but apparently it has qualities, real or imagined, that surpass other stones for those ax guys.
