    WOW! Not to mention your fine skills at restoring them. Even more impressive, IMO.

    Never heard of a blushing coticule before, but I'm new to coticule honing. You really did a great job with those stones. The dished stone certainly had some miles on it, but you got it looking like new again.
    It must have taken a lot of honing to put that kind of wear on it. I guess a lot of old barbers didn't really believe in lapping or flattening their stones.
    Very nice find and +1 on what Sharptonn said.

    If I hadn't found mine at an antique store, I would still be going without.

    Those look like some fine coticules that I am sure will provide you with fantastic edges.

    Those look very nice, going by the first two pictures I doubted they actually were coticules. Great saves. Lovely sizes too, very practical, especially for honing with the hone in hand. Enjoy!
