Thread: Does this Escher need a slurry stone?

Uhm, the seller does sound a bit incompetent. What makes an Escher an Escher is the label. There are plenty of thuringian hones and they are all pretty similar. In fact some of them are better than some Escher mined ones.
If you paid so much money for an Escher label you most likely won't get it (check upon arrival). If you paid it for a great finisher you most likely will get it (again check upon arrival).
