    All I can say is that you are a lucky, lucky man. Escher's are quality hones. Enjoy.

    Geez!!
    That is a fantastic find.
    Eschers are great hones, many consider them to be at the very pinnacle of razor hones.
    Once you get the hang of honing, you will enjoy this so much.

    Not only a peach of a stone, but the best size, too. (Not the usual skinny 1.5" width.) Congratulations! =)
