    Default Ebay hone

    Just lapped a hone I got from eBay.
    It was a dark black when I got it, but after lapping it, it tuned out to be a gray with almost a sparkly finish.

    The hone is very smooth 10 in long, just under 1 in wide.

    I'll post some pictures later on tonight when I can get to my camera.

    The hone is soft and easy to scratch. I lapped it with not much work with some lapping grit on glass. 80 X and then 400 X.
    The hone feels like a 10 000 or 12 000 grit.

    After looking around a bit i thinks the hone is a Tam O'Shanter.
    What do you guys think.
    Also if it is a Tam O'Shanter is it worth much.
