Is this a Charnley Forest and how to lap it?
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to figure out whether this old sharpening stone that I have is a Charnley Forest or not. Its about 1 1/2 by 6 inches, aside from the scratches it has, its otherwise really smooth feeling and seems like a pretty hard stone. Its mostly light gray-green in color but it has a generous amount of red-brown swirls in it too. What do you experts think? Is this a Charnley? I'm going to lap it on a flat granite surface with 600/1000/2000 grit sandpaper and then test it out. But I have a feeling thats going to take a while and in the meanwhile, I would appreciate if anyone has some feedback about this stone.
Thanks in advance
Pete
