Flea Market Find
Picked this up at the market today. I had to lap both sides, a lot. The blue is still plenty rough around the edges. I measures 8"x2". Perhaps I can find a way to cut about .5" off each side to use for slurry and then the stone will be very nice.

Thanked: 2591Nice natural combo coticule there, cutting it IMO would be a crime, just grab a slurry stone from the cassifieds, or some online store

Thanked: 12Very nice combo you got there. I agree with all of the above, don't cut it, plus if you cut an inch off of it you might as well throw a wad of cash out your car window. Cause you will lose quit a bit going from 8" to 7".

Very nice flea market find! Congrats.
A small slurry stone usually can be purchased very cheap but the credit card DMT can be used on many stones and can be handy for a pocket knife also.
