I don't know what the large one is but I think the smaller one may be a frictionite. A barber hone of some kind for sure.

I don't know what that last one is. Did you lap the grunge off of the first one ? Do that with the first and the last and post side pix again and it will be easier to tell what you've got. If the first one has a slate back it is probably a coticule. I don't believe any other stones have slate backs and I've had one that was a creamy and consistent green. Sold it on ebay years ago. :banghead:
try lap that stone and show again side view of it. then we can see better.
The one on the wood does look like an Arkansas. Maybe a translucent Arkie ? The short one is still a barber hone. How about a side shot of the one with the slate bottom, unless it was one of the two I just mentioned .
The stone in the wooden box could be an Arkansas but the swirls and speckles remind me of ToS hones like the ones here: http://straightrazorpalace.com/hones...tml#post628100
Could you show the 'slate' side as well?
