question about a stone
Alright its been a little bit since I been here so before the question... Hello everybody, how are ya. Now I have questions about a few of my stones now I have had them for a while and get great results using them. One is a "Raven" and the other is a "Union" does anybody know anything about them at all because I cant find any info. grit,country of origin, anything at all. To be honest my main reason for asking is because I saw a "Raven" on e-bay as a buy it now deal for $350 and I like the stone alot but thats seems way to expensive.
Thanks in advance for any help

By the names, I am assuming they are barber hones. If this is the case, I would say they are worth $350 is ridiculous, unless it is rare and collectible, in which case the collectors who would pay that much are ridiculous ;-p.
If you are getting good results, meaning that you are getting great shaves off of them, then I would estimate they are 8k or higher. The only way to get a better idea than that is to compare to hones of known grit.

You can have mine for $199.95
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Thanked: 11Anyone seriously attempting to get $350 for a stone will be very happy to explain why it's worth so much. Eager, in fact.
