I don't really have time to play with the forum lately, that is, until my lab is dismantled on the 24th, but I have made it a life goal to finally, and comprehensively, compile an index of ALL the damn Carborundum hones. This has required the purchase of, "ahem," a FEW hones. So, I have to ask, what are the exact dimensions of this hone, is there an identifying number on the hone, is it a one or two sided hone, and finally, Randy, could you please provide a photo of it out of the box? If it is a two sided hone, could you include a side photo and one of each face?

Hurrah! Maybe I have a little bit of HAD on top of all the other AD's?
It's nice to be right sometimes, but in this case I'm sorry for you that it wasn't something else!

Oh, come now.... carborundum hones aren't THAT bad. In fact, you can put an extremely fine finish on a razor with one. All you have to do is tweak it a bit. Glue on leather and charge with Cr02 and that ol' Carborundum hone will be sweet!
