That's crazy talk.

You can say that about anything that is "Collectible" and considered an Antique.

"A comic book is HOW MUCH?! It cost less than a penny to make!"

Etc.

They're also just as expensive when you buy them large.

Were there any other hone under a different name from the same mine as the Escher?
Also,what is the hone that costs more?

Go Here : Japan Tool
& look at the stones that have P.O.A. under the price. Some might be in the 4 figure range

Kinda like the one that was in the classified section here a couple of days ago? That was more than $350. Looked like a sweet one too.

It's on the way, brother. =)

Here's my Gelbgrün.

I was very lucky to try out Birnando's Y/G Escher for a few months and I can safely say they are great stones. That stone gave the closest edge to my J-Nat I've used so far; Wonderfully smooth but sharp as stink.

They're also rare and that one had a good label on it as well as being massive, which adds to the value as well.

They're great stones and definately worth their weight in gold.

Gold is currently about $1366/ounce... You guys better hurry up and get one while they're still at bargain prices
