    Minty with an aftertaste of rust, perhaps?

    Not the whole collection, Martin - there are more than twice this number, but that would have cluttered up the table too much, plus I left out all the diamond plates and the synthetics as they aren't really that interesting to look at. Here goes:

    The paddle I was talking about has three pics, and I think you can only upload six at a time, so they will follow.

    It's not quite as green as I thought, but it appears a darker green when wet.

    Neil, what about the green hone in the forth picture you posted. It seems that this hone nearly fulfils all necessary requierements to be a cutlers green hone: ...'forest green with sparse blue speckles'....
