Hard to say. I'm assuming the seller didn't say ? Off the top of my head the first thing I thought of was a black hard Arkansas. Not sure though.
Hello Livio,
You might try cleaning/lapping it up and then post another pic from directly overhead. It reminds me of my surgical black Arkansas. Get all scratches out and give a better description. Is it smooth like glass or grainy? Rub an old knife blade or scrap on it and see if it will polish or grind. That's all I can say at this point.
I use my Arkansas all the time for refreshing an edge. Good luck.

whats the true color of that stone it looks purple from the pic ,and is that white scratchs on top of the stone ? how does the stone smell ? what color is the slurry ?and whats the bottom of the stone look like ?
Hello and thank you, I don't received the stone yet , maybe monday.I will update the toughts then.
Regards
Livio
The design of the box is leading me to say Arkansas at this moment in time. I reserve the right to alter my opinion in the event of new conflicting material.
