Thread: Hone ID please.

Hey guys, was coming home from work today and found a little antique shop on the way.
This hone was burried with a bunch of tools and dished very badly.
I attempted to lap it, but it was extremely hard so I took it to my belt sander 10 mins at 120 grit, then to the dmt.
It measures 7 3/8 x 2 1/4 x 15/16
The majority of the stone is pink, with some green patches and dots, and some funny white lines running through it.
I would call the slurry white grey ish.
Maybe worth mentioning when a razor touches it, it sounds different like putting steel to glass?
Ill be trying it out tonight on a razor I finished on a coti lastnight.
Thanks!

The pictures aren't sowing for me

Only the links are coming up on my computer but they work, on my tablet the pictures are coming up fine?

all three links are coming up bad.

Links dont work!

when you reply to the thread go advanced and click on the paper clip at the top and down load the pic's that way

Well, I can't identify stones by looking at pics anyhow. But I do like to guess. So I guess it's an Arkansas! I can't remember which which one is the pink, green, and spotted one. But do know they can come that way. They are also ridiculously hard, and belt sanding has been a recommended way to lap them. So that's all I have. Now I'll let the experts continue.

Ok now that I've seen the pics...nvm..I have no business in this thread.

Any better?

Maybe this will help, a shot of the back

i would like to see a shot of the chip on top of the stone . it looks to be an ark .
