I can't resist. I'm seeing alot more of these Hindostan whestones in recent posts than ever before, and from what I understand they are finishers in the 10K + range.

What are they like to hone on, feedback wise, and are they slow or what?

Even if they don't work very well they will make nice paperweights :)

I'll bet a $0.50 piece that it has a place in the honing mix, all we have to do is find it and learn how the Hindostone wants to be used.

Sham is pretty much the authority on hones, so when he has the opportunity to put it thru it's paces and comments where it belongs in the "mix"...you can bet that I (most others as well) will listen. I have come to greatly respect his knowledge and abilities....
