Do you know where it came from? Is it a Dan's Whetstone? If so, presumption is it is well flat. Next step, start honing and laying down laps. I'd start with 200 in reps of 50. BTW, good looking stone.

Enjoyable read. Thanks.

Well, we know it wasn't the stone's fault. :tu

Marshall,

Have you seen these 4 videos by "DR.MATT357" on YouTube regarding honing coticules? They did me a world of good, especially the last one.

No. My 3 Arkies are all True Hard, a small Translucent, a small Ark. Black, and full size Ark. Black. I wanted to see some stories about bevel setting with softer Arkies.

Marshall, do you use the softer Arkies to set the bevel? Tell us some of your experience if so.

Btw, I love your new stone. Besides my Shapton Glass series, I have 3 coticles, 3 Arkies, a Belgium...

I'm with you, Marshall. I'll get mine from Dan's. Over the next couple of years I plan to get 3 or 4 more. After my visit this Texan is a converted Arkie.
