If I am not mistaken the Norton is a stone that ax men use. I've seen them go very high in previous ebay auctions the past couple of years. Not unusual for them to top $500. I don't remember seeing one go this high but it looks to be in great shape.
That is Norton and worth the money.
Ok,this Norton worth the money...but what has of so special that new Nortons or other brands can't do? Are these rare items? With this amount of money you can buy excellent stones...
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. :shrug:
Edge comes out from that stone will be better then any natural stone i have used.
check http://straightrazorpalace.com/hones...ristics-5.html thread i have mention about that stone
That is really cool Sham. I didn't realize that was the same stone. If I had it I would put it on ebay as fast as I could type and hit enter. :D
Jimmy took me 4 years to get one and it is only one i have. Sometimes we should think about ourselves
me too...Quote:

Anyone know the year of production and if this stone was manufactured in different types?
That seller must think shes won the lottery.
