Thanks for the reply Adrspach, I suspected it may be a Charnley but I havent seen very many, I thought they were nearly fictional

Yea I believe so, both of the Cotis have a beautiful purpleish and grainy looking BBW backing them. The slurry when lapping is a nice pink purple. these stones feel so nice all lapped up. I wish i could make out the label on the Larger Coti but I'm sure it will be lost in lapping. Do you or anyone else recognize it? Originally Posted by adrspach

Strops like that can be fun, some becomes superstrops with some cleaning, resurface and a little oil... others just crumbles to dust in your hands! Originally Posted by saitou
