Back to the coti ID... do you have access to a microscope? You might be able to see the little garnets in the slurry.

Stone for that matter. . If I am using one of my India stones on a knife and it forms a slurry it means it's time to clean/lap the stone and start again or chunk it in the trash.

i had a few mystery hones that turn out to be india stone's i dont use slurry on india stones
