    Default 75 years loose-in-a-toolbox hone

    Amazingly no huge chips on the cutting side. Took almost 2 hrs on 200 diamond hone to remove all of this. After facing, it's a great hone, I'm very happy with it. Brand is columbia, color is red brick. But dang, it was bad.

    Looks good to me, from the photo, I would probably use it as a tool hone.
    But maybe it's smoother than it looks.

    Very nice save! As the saying goes, "There's no tool like an old tool!"

    That was lucky. Often there can be considerable damage done by one of these.
