I have pictures in this thread about natural stones i'm looking for in Newfoundland: http://straightrazorpalace.com/hones...al-stones.html
About getting more, well thats difficult I plan to but it'll take time. Maybe in a year or two i can sell some...
I got the three hones in yesterday. Lapped them and experimented with the purple (finest) one. First impression: good quality stone, edges rival the ones you get with a Thuringian. VFM IMHO.
I would appreciate Randydance's opinion on them.
This is good to hear, I have a purple one on the way also.
My LM I got from the UK is the equal to any of my finishers, and I have quite a few.
heres the DT & LM combo stone
Very nice and smooth shave this morning with my EAB frameback.
Great hone IMHO.
Kees and episaacs, do you mind sharing the honing process that you used to finish the razors on this stone? What grit stone did you use immediately preceding the LM, and did you use slurry, dilute to water, etc.? About how many laps?
Thanks.
