One question to anyone who stumbles onto this thread though, on page twelve it talks about a "Turkey oil-stone" which is supposed to be a very fine stone. Towards the bottom of the page it talks of how to care for the stone, "Sperm or neat's-foot oil, or an oil not disposed to thicken should be used." Anyone know to what "Sperm..." is referring? I am keeping my fingers crossed that it's a term no longer used for a type of oil.
