Tam O' Shanter Vs. Belgian Blue
I was wondering if anyone that ownes or has used both of these stones would care to compare the two stones. From what I have read it seems like both stones perform a similar function in that they can both be used in place of the 8K side of the Norton (although they are both slower) before moving on to a higher grit finishing stone like a coticule or an escher. The search function did not yield much information regarding the Tam O' Shanter except that it is a relatively slow but very effective hone and that it is highly recommended as a "must have" by several of the honemeisters. Thanks
