Does anyone know stone #1 and #2

I do not see oozuko in the stock, none of tamps match as far as I can tell.

ah ok, so we only have 3 & 5 worked out

I just finished lapping them all and only a few of these stone are going to be good for razors anyway.... thankfully they didn't cost much

ah well, they might make a good bevel setter or tomonagura lol

I do not mean to argue but there is no oozuko stamp on any of the stones posted by the OP. I hope Maksim or Jim can enlighten us more about what stone is what.

Well, his photo is last one in my post

Yep this one is Ozuku
But very hard to see the kanji

Thanks Maksim

Do you know what 1 & 2 is and is there anything else you can tell me about 3, 4 and 5

Thanks

Also, stone 4 has some small pin sized hols in it, is that still ok for knives or is better used for a tomonagura

All these stones are all tool grade not really razor grade, I did want sosome coarser stones so ii guess I got some lol

I think all of these stones is very nice for knifes or pre polishers for razors
Holes is "Su" So probably they are suitas, Last one color looks much like Akapin

I'm going to start a seperate section in the Hones forum callled. "Brighty's Jnats" It's just easier that way.

P.S. Max, don't encourage him ! His wife/GF is probably going to kick him and his stones out soon.

Seriously mate, She must be the nicest, most understanding woman in the world, or the most pissed/angry....
