    Unfortunately for some reason they are not normally willing to send some items from .com out of US and on .co.uk they are not available. Example of it is Norton beginner's set.

    Hmm...that's a shame. It must have been a lucky find. I was either going to get the Norton or a King 1/6. You could try one of them? Or the one you've found...

    Well it is worth noting that the Nortons, Shaptons and Naniwa super stones and Choseras are not made for razors. They were made primarily for sharpening tools such as plane blades and chisels. The Japanese especially are enthusiastic about sharpening their wood working tools. Any of the fore mentioned do a stellar job on razors .... in skilled hands.

    I would do a search on google and on Knife Forums and see if anyone has reviewed results with that hone. You could also do a search on amazon and if anyone is selling it through them there may be reviews.

    One time, in band camp, I shaved with a Gold Dollar razor.
