Thread: Another Find

Ok here's another hone I found today
but not sure of the grits. Maybe someone on here does.
Box reads Norton Quickcut Oilstone
on the side it reads UPB 6
I dont think oil was used on this stone has no smell at all
Tried to search norton but the closest thing I found was a UPB8
Thanks .

Bob it seems to course for straight razor. Just try first on something else before using on straight.
It is just from seeing picture . not sure 100%

Thanks Bud
I was thinking that myself .Seams like a tool hone
do you think this would be good for a lapping stone?
Thanks again

lapping stone should be flat first. i don't think this stone will do the job before you make it flat. Try dmt's for lapping they are very handy 325 grit or lower or you can try Norton lapping stone. i think they aren't so expensive
