    If it's a Carbo, and it doesn't say RAZOR anywhere on the box, it's not for razors.

    I could be wrong, but I doubt it. I have some from this company and they actually say "razor" hones. this one seems to say "coarse".

    thanx guys, I need a barber's hone and I keep losing at ebay. Do you think a WTB message on B/S/T for a barber's hone would yield better results?

    It can't hurt. Have you checked in with Tilly at Redtrader99.com? I haven't been there in a while, so I don't know what she has at the moment.

    Cool site, Now I'm drooling over their razors.
    Thanx, but here's another newb question..Cushion Strop Hone or Lithide Hone?

    I have a norton 4/8, but need something between it and the strops

    Of those two, I would say the lithide, but see if any members with more barber hone experience chime in.
