    Default Source for coticule

    Hi,
    Anybody have experience with www.bestsharpeningstones.com for coticules? They seem to have pretty good pricing. The other site I've seen is The Perfect Edge.

    Thanks,
    BH

    I just ordered one today from the Canadian site, Fendrihan. Shipping to the U.S. is not bad, and mine comes with a slurry stone.

    Chief,

    The nice thing about ordering a coticule from Howard at the Perfect Edge is that for a nominal fee, he will lap the stone for you and he will also sell you a "cotigura" for raising a slurry. In addition to which Howard is a member here and he is also one of the good guys.

    There was a recent thread about them here, in the context of their ebay sales.

    I have a 2"x6" combo, a large bout and a monster 4"x10" Belgian Blue all from Howard at The Perfect Edge. He is very knowledgeable and very easy to talk to.
    You might check out his honing dvd, it has some good information.
