    One of my favorite progressions, Glen.
    The other would be 1000 chosera, Washita, 8,12, Naniwa SS , B/G Escher or Thurigan.

    Those Washita stones cover some ground don't they. Amazing stones.
    What a curse be a dull razor; what a prideful comfort a sharp one

    Yes they are.!
    A stone that "can" act as three separate stones, depending on what you use as lube, and the amount of tourqe applied to the edge. But works best for me as a mid progression stone, with the use of water. Pure glycerin, will make it perform like it's a 8000 grt. stone.

    As taught to me by these two fine gentleman, at the Medina meet, last year.

    I have almost that exact same Reynolds, and it's one of my favorites too.

    As do I, mine is made out of equal parts steel and headaches.

    Still looks great, though.
