Be sure to break it in on something else first. There are always some loose diamond particles coming loose on a brand new plate. You don't want them embedded in your stones.

Great advise - many thanks! I think I'll sharpen a couple of knifes on it first.
7-day kropp set with storage box in the mail. or at least i think it should be.

It's funky but I like it.:o I haven't received it yet but I think the marbled texture is natural wearing rather than dried shaving soap. It's an Ever-Ready rubberized finish and I think the white is what is behind the black (from looking at other copies of this brush).
You're right, that is funky looking.
Lol
There Is Just Something About It!!!! I Really Do Like The Vintage Look!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Ty
If it's too funky on arrival I can always paint the top part black and seal it like all of the others. :)
This is coming as well.

Shoubadani stone. I think that's how you spell it. My first stone. Figured I start with something just for touching up my razors. I hear its going to be tough to lap so I picked up some sandpaper and a piece of Granite tile from Home depot.
I have an older razor that needs a touch-up and I'm not worried about it too much. It had the Bevel done by a pro so I'm crossing my fingers I can get a HHT out of it real soon.
