Hope to expand. :)

Hi, nice rocks. Are they coticule/bbw combo hones or on schist?
Any chance of side/obverse pictures if they are combo hones?
Hi, thanks!
They are both glued. The older one onto a BBW and the newer one onto a slate.

Here are a couple pics of my guys. The first is a group shot, minus the combo I picked up a couple weeks ago. It's just the yellow sides, I'll get the blues in time. The second pic is a side shot of the stone second from the left. All but the bout are combos, the one in the second pic is the only natural one. Enjoy!

JCitron, I'm loving that natural combo stone! I've seen pictures of a bunch of natural combo stones with a gradual colour change from yellow to blue, but your's has such clear definition!
Nice rocks all around. :tu
I'm not very good with a camera, but here are my coti's

@ Dave: Thanks! I think that's how I got it so cheap, on one side the line is much more straight and in the auction picture it looked like it wasn't a natural combo.
@ Dan: That's a nice assortment of colors you have there. Beautiful.
@ Chris: I will forever be insanely jealous of the "tiger" stone you have there. Mine has a faint hint of tiger but nothing like that. Bravo!
any idea how much a coticule with the tiger marks goes for?
I just wish they would be for sale at all.
The German distributor says he remembers that hone well.
(Among all the hones he's dealing with for years)
Here are a few pics of the Hone I got from my grandfathers wood working shop. I was quite suprised to find it there and even happier that I was allowed to get it :D
Glued to BBW.
