    Yes.

    Yes. Rozsutec [RAW-shoo-tets, no?] is much underestimated, mainly, I think, due to its hardness and generally sub-optimally lapped stated in which it is sold. Don't expect Escher polishing qualities however.

    I tried to order one from Dick some time ago but the transaction would not complete. I was trying to order the 200 mm stone.
    I still want one.

    I bought one of those and it will arrive soon.
    Is the sandpaper enough to flatten it?

    Of course you do, and so do I.
    Thicker hones make sharper edges, right?
    Are you going to try Dick (now Dictum) again, or will you look elsewhere?

    I will be waiting to see what Adrspach has to say about his Rozsutec stone first.

    Today I got two rozsutec stones in the mailbox, from Mstein in Slovakia. Had to spend two hours lapping one of them (the other one going to my friend), and then honed my favourite razor. For the first time ever managed the hanging hair test

    I must recommend Mstein very much. Dirt cheap (for a scandinavian wallet at least) and fast as hell service.

    Big thanks goes out to Rotavator who's been guiding me alot.

    If he truly were your friend, you would have lapped his for him!
