    Simply put they flat do their job, no muss no fuss no BS

    I have a simple straight forward Vid up on my Youtube channel on some ways to use them just google "gssixgun, barber's hone"

    For maintaining your razors they are simple, easy, and cost effective...
    by "sexy" glen means they are cheap and relatively easy to find and they get the job done without being flashy. nobody wants them because of the modern mentality of "goods and products that cost more are inherently better than less expensive ones" if somebody on the bay started a trend of listing$200+ for a barber hone... all of a sudden they would be the talk of all the shaving forums

    enjoy,

    Thanks guys,

    I've put an ad in the trade section of the classifieds looking for one. If anyone is interested in a trade, I'm all ears

    I understand $1000 for a frictionite stone, but for $25,000 I expect nothing less than pure, distilled and then hand forged unobtainium.

    I think I got my barber hone, so I'll keep the forum posted on how I do with it.
