    Default My new barber hones - Swaty and Swotstein

    Hey Guys

    Just got my latest ebay purchase in the mail. I have read through the Barber Hone Characteristics thread so I have an idea about the Swaty hone, but the Swotstein hone seems to have little info about it in that thread. If anybody knows anything about this it would be appreciated if you could share that info. Thanks

    Should I lap them do you think? I have a DMT 325/1200.

    I would clean them and then use them, unless they are not flat or dont refine the edge, then i would lap them.
    Be aware that lapping a barbers hone can be quite the task.
