    Default Coticule ID ?

    I bought this vintage coticule from a collector. The top of the box has a lizard or the fellow I got it from called it a Salamander. I can't make the name on the label out. Anyone out there ID this label and tell me which company distributed this hone? It looks like it may say Salam Rock Hone in a Gothic font followed by is superior to all other hones for sharpining and then it breaks up. Anyone know this hone ?

    most definately a coticule. The slate base for stabilization indicates this. pardon the lack of caps. The keys are stuck on my keyboard. mikeB

    Thanks Mike, I know it is a coticule. It is glued to a BBW so it must be from back some years. The distributor is who I am curious about. Where the label may say Salam Old Hone there isn't room between the first two words for it to read Salamander or I would figure that is what it said.
