Thread: Belgian Blue?

It's harder than a Thuringian, more like the Belgian I have. It doesn't give a slurry while honing yet it's easy to make with a DMT. The pattern sure does look like the Silkstone and it if weren't for the red dots I might be convinced.

That's an interesting stone, I've only seen it mentioned once before by mrmaroon at Shaveready.

With that pattern you'd almost expect it to be related to the Belgians but I have no idea what it really is.

its hard to tell what kind of stone that is. it looks like a Silkvein stone but the veins are much smaller on that stone the red dots are probably some kind of mineral deposit.

Thanks for the link Piet, that's the same stone and I agree with mrmaroon's observations. I'm really intrigued by this and hope to come up with name and origin.
