The Fox hone I have never heard of so I too would like to see a photo.
The Sway is a very common and popular barber hone used for finishing or for maintenance of a razor whenever it needs a little touch up. The Swaty is generally used wet with water or, my preference, lather, with only 4 to 6 strokes.
