    since your hone is different, I dont know if this applies, but a swaty I bought recently was very, very course, the seller stated he lapped it with a DMT, the surface had some pits similiar to what you describe.

    I re-lapped it (not much fun) starting at 220 and working up to 2000, on each grit I started with 25 dry laps and then went wet, after all that the finish came out just a smooth as my other swatys, only time will tell if it lasts, but the lapping method does make a difference IMHO
