Thread: black escher

Does anyone have an escher/vintage thuringian that's black or almost black in color, i.e. with no trace of blue or green?

If so I wonder where they fit into the lineup of fineness. I recently got one. It's quite hard for an escher, certainly harder than my blue-green and yellow-green (my impression is that the lighter eschers are generally softer), and it seems to be a very fine finisher. It does not have that velvety feeling I associate with honing on the yellow-green, but the results are very fine.

Just curious.

yes there is black hone which named Droescher not escher.their usual size is 6/2.it is fine stone almost same as escher.will you post picture of it?
hope this helps
