Three new stones that I received yesterday, they have been used by a Dutch barber. These are so nice I just had to show them :) A 25.7cm lightgreen Thuringian, a 25.4cm Coticule BBW natural combo and a 22.6cm Coticule without backing. Interestingly enough the BBW side of the combo is just as worn as the coticule side and from the BBW's scratches I can tell a circle honing method was used on that side.

Thanks guys. Maybe interesting to show how worn these are and the scratches on the BBW.

Good to see your table again Piet.
It's a floor, Stepan ;) Funny how my camera changed it's colour for each pic.
At least you have reasonable camera. Unlike me. :gaah:
Scratch pattern on BBW does not look like it was caused by honing a razor.
I wonder how many years the barber used them.
I was thinking that too - looks more like it was caused by rolling around on a gritty surface - maybe while in a larger box in the back of a car while it was moving.Quote:
