    Beautiful.

    Btw, is that a yellow Belgian that the razor is lying on?
    How big is it? Looks 2.5 or 3 inch wide from the picture.
    I guess an amazing razor deserves an amazing stone.

    Thanks to all for the positive feedback, I'm quite happy with it now it's off the stones.

    Bruno, yes it's a 3x8 natural stone.

    If you don't mind me asking, what did it cost?
    I paid 65 euros for my 1.5x7 yellow, and I know that the price goes up very fast with increasing width.

    It's an extra extra fine grade, I hate to say it but it was in the mid 200's.

    I figured as much. Good on you.
    If you have one or more high end razors that cost a couple of hundred dollars each, it makes sense to have a stone like that.
    I am sure it makes your honing work a lot easier and satisfying.
