Thread: What is the best honing stone available?

Could be your right. I will find out and let all of you know the deal.

Today I received my Thuringer from Manufactum: http://www.manufactum.de/track_flash...Pr.5112.0.html

Tried it after supper and it is a great stone! The sharpness of my two working razors increased enormously! Within a quarter of an hour passing HHT with ease! And that at 18 euros! This is serious VFM!

I have only used mine on two razors, both of them J.A. Henckels Friodors when are tempered very hard. The Thuringian did not quite do the job that I wanted. It seemed like an 6000 edge. But that is a very premature judgement.
I will post more later. BTW, my total cost, including shipping, for two hones was $80.
