    Don't have an Ali's blade and thinking about it I don't have a SR with wood scales. Now it's all rectified.

    Mottled Vermont Slate hone, 10x2x1. Will be doing a write-up in the hone area of the forum sometime soon.

    Scored this Keen Kutter barber hone on Etsy about ten minute ago, looks very good condition, no obvious chips, dings or scratches (there were more pics than this one), just in need of a lap and condition. Dual sided.

    I have the same hone, she’s good for a travel touch up, with minimal pressures.

    Do some reading here before lapping that. Some won't ever be the same after lapping.
    Clean and apply Vaseline is always recommended.

    I've restored a few barber hones over the last year or so, Modine's tutorial was the one I looked at before I started. I had a Wester Bros hone which looks very similar to this except the colors are reversed, that one came out quite well so hopefully the Keen Kutter will come out just as well although it is impossible to know. The Wester Bros was in much worse surface condition than this seems just from visual observation so I am hopeful. The tin is in bad shape but I don't tend to keep tins/razor coffins/boxes if they're beat up anyhow.
