Or an exceptional C-12..

The good news is that the OP has yet another
hone on the way to compare with. Time, practice
and use will tell.

Given the color, size, and that it was in a lot of presumably old hones, I'd vote for Thuri. My Thuris are visually and tactily indistinguishable from my Guangxi, but the edges they produce certainly are.

When you lapped it, did it seem soft or rather hard? My thuri & eschers have a softer feel when lapping...the c-12 just feels harder when lapping.
