The stones I know of, al similar in makeup but from slightly different sources are the Manufactum "Muller" stones which are boxed and labeled and the same type Kees sells on eBay, the MST Muller "Original Thuringens" which come in new white boxes and the MST Muller "Natural Whetstones" (Hunsruecks really) which come wrapped in cellophane and with labels.
I have one of the Manufactum/Kees/ Muller stones and it seems identical to real MST Muller Thuringens I have here. The MST Hunsrueck is darker, harder and more mottled in appearance and faster cutting. I see not real difference in grit size though.
