My Western stone collection

**maxim207** · 06-20-2011, 03:52 PM

I have very big HAD right now and bought many stones from ebay and some members here

I like to try new natural stones all the time and not only Japanese, so i decided to collect so much as possible and then compare them all with each other and do some videos

These stones that i got so fare:
nr 1 Arkansas
nr 2 Thuringian
nr 3 Turkey stone
nr 4 small combo Coticule
nr 5 Coticule La Nouvelle Veine
nr 6 Charnley Forest
nr 7 Yellow lake

Still on the way to me:

2 more Coticules BBW and La Petite Blanche combo
1 Escher
1 more Thuringian
and 3 unknown from ebay

Like i sad before it will be big HAD tread

Videos and more pics will fallow

Nice rocks Maxim.
I'll look forward to your report on how you find them

Great score. It will be interesting to hear how they perform.

This thread is going to be very interesting.

I've heard of the Yellow Lake, but know nothing about it.

**maxim207** · 06-20-2011, 07:46 PM

There are some on UK ebay and they are not to expensive it is bit harder then my Coticules slower but finer too wonderful stone but need to explore it more

Nice ones Maksim. Didn't know you had HAD for stones other than JNats, too. Just don't start selling these types of stone as well or else I'm really gonna be in trouble. I look forward to the videos and to hearing how your Thuringian compares to your best JNats.

**maxim207** · 06-20-2011, 07:54 PM

HaHa... will definitely not sell any of westerns i promise

But all of these stones compares to Jnats for sure i am exited to try more of each stones because like Jnats they are all different and no one is same !

Utopian, Alex posted some interesting information about the Yellow Lake here. I sold the one from that thread because it was just like my DT. I found another unboxed one in a lot I bought, again just like my DT but slightly darker.

maxim207, if your YL is finer than a Coticule I wonder what type of the ones Alex described it is. Does it sparkle a lot?

**maxim207** · 06-20-2011, 09:44 PM

Yes mine sparkles but not a lot just a bit, not like that special stone

It have some blackish specs too looks like on those pictures too
Here some more pics
