The slurry on Jnat stones breaks down, but as far as I am ware, and correct me if I am wrong, this is not the case for Turingians and may be Coticules.

you're exactly right, but I figured why not try the same thing for this stone? I had to use something, I don't own any Jnats! YET!

I leave the slurry on my Turingian on too just wanted to point out the differences.

I shaved off the dried slurry edge I honed the dubl duck on, it seemed to pull a little, not much though.

Yesterday I received a vintage thuri in the mail with the wooden box and label. Sham told me its the same as an escher! Yes!

Congrats. A number of vendors used their own label on Escher hones. Celebrated German Razor Water Hone, Droescher, and others that I can't think of offhand.

Yeah it says Celebrated German Razor water hone on the label.
It's a nice little hone, almost like honing on glass or something.
