I saw that on Ebay, Pricey little bugger, wasn't it....Great stone though, I use my Escher pretty much exclusively these days....
I leave mine out, and maybe that's the problem. I don't feel like breaking out 3, 4, or 5 different stones, when one can do the job. I just maintain my own blades.
Everyone has their own routine. I rarely, unless there's damage, have to come off any stone prior to my Escher. I raise a good slurry on my mine, and do about 3 sets, diluting to plain water at the end, and my blades are fantastic. Like Glen's "One Stone Honing" YMMV. Every stone is a bit different.
In any case, Escher is wonderful stone, It's no wonder they are so valuable today, and prized by Barber's back in the day.
The pics are bad, On Ebay, it looked brown to me.Last edited by zib; 07-18-2011 at 03:43 PM.
