    Default French Hones

    Wanted to add that shot here, interesting here is the color variances of some of the stones, as you can see in most cases there are two types of coloration.

    one turns into a purple/red coloration where the others seems to look blueish/violet.

    Finally got one, very fine and dense(heavy). I have been looking for one for some time now.
    It has over 30 of those green marks, from dots to specs to what I can only discribe as wafting smoke only tuquoise green in color. Most of it can only be seen when wet and in daylight. Not even a flashlight can bring it out. I only lapped the top and it brings out a hard to discribe hollowgraphic look. Almost like something is bellow the surface sparkly but really tiny and very closely packed together look. Verry hard to describe truthfully. I have used it once and gave a good shave with glycerin and soapy water with only a litte irritation in my sesitive spots. Next time will definately use camelia oil as I use on all my arkies. Just wanted to gve glycerin a shot but like all my other side by sides tests oil always wins in the end.

    What do you guys all think of this one? Is it French or Welsch, what say you. It gives a really nice edge, so regardless I am happy and I find this beautiful.

    I have a Blue La Lune and it is great. My purple stone does not have the metallic shimmer that the blue one has. What makes you think it is a Lune? Any tell tale signs?

    Well, everything actually, the colour (wet & dry), the saw marks at the side and the typical green inclusions
