Thread: Barber's hone? Advice anyone!

So I just picked up a, what I believe to be, a barber's hone off ebay. Its a Townley Strop-Back Hone #800. Pat. Aug. 05. measuring 6-1/2” by 2” Gray colored stone with leather cushioned strop on back. Thats from the description. Does anyone know the best lapping method for a hone like this, I would start with a low grit 320-400 wet-dry paper but what would a good finishing grit be? I want to basically use this as a touch up refresher stone, but what other capabilities are there with this hone? Also could I get a slurry going with this type of stone in order to get a little more cutting power for heavier jobs? It is my first hone and eventually I would like to move into acquiring a set with lower grits for restoration. What would be a good second stone to compliment this one? Any advice would be helpful thanks!
