Thread: Using an Escher

IIRC, never had one, the 10" is 2" wide. It seems that Escher, AFAIK, made stock sizes with no oddball variations. At least in their regular production.

OK checked mine,
10.25x2x0.9" the thickness is so close to unused condition

My Fav Escher is a 'Barbers Gem'. Blue-Green two-toned and 5 1/2 by 2 1/2 inches. I use it only with water as a final finisher or to refresh a blade. Usually 20-40 laps. In fact it is probably the one stone I would never part with (including my JNAT's).
