    Default yet another hone ID

    Just got this cool natural stone hone and my guess is, it is a j-Nat of some kind. Very fine grit and light grey color dry, wet,, it is a dark blue color. It slurries a light white color and is hard to slurry.Here are some pics:[ATTACH=CONFIG]132520

    I apologize but the correct measurments are 4-3/8 x 2-3/8 x 1-3/16, it slurries in 10 seconds or so on the 325 DMT, slow with the slurry stone it came with of the same material. Feels like a really fine grit, and have tried it on a couple of razors and it give a real nice mirror finish.
