Thread: Wow, Thuris!

The "Welsh Thuri's" ARE LM's. They just weren't mined by any company and put in a box labeled LM. THey were cut up by AJ, and called purple welsh slate, then later, welsh thuri, after he read it on a forum. Please someone swoop in and tell me if I'm wrong about that. I'd prefer if he labeled them AJ's brand Lyn Mellynlyn, or AJ's Yellow Lake Stone. I mean, it worked for J. G. Escher, right? At least AJ tests all his. There's no way Mr. Escher tested all the hones that had HIS name on them.

The vintage Thuringians are great even the small ones but they take some practise to use.

I've got one like that. I've gotten pretty adept at using it to maintain my edges.
