Anyone recognize these hones?
Hey folks,
Just picked up what looks like two hones from a local garage sale. Does anyone recognize what they might be? The first is a milky, almost translucent material, with the second being rather coarse with perhaps slate on the back?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Joe

I agree that the first is probably an Arkansas. The second, whatever it is, looks way too coarse for razors. Garden tools, yes. Razors, no.
Best wishes
