Nice CHARNLEY:)
nice box! :)
Do you ever notice these sellers who have a 7 day set, or a boxed hone, and they put more pix of the box in the listing than the razors or the hone .... :banghead:
Anyway, that is a nice Charnley. Has the colors and though it is smaller than many I've seen, it is what I consider an ideal size for honing razors. A lot of guys like to use them with oil or a dab of dish soap. IIRC they are the same stuff that Arkansas are made of. The name of which escapes me at this moment ...... I'll probably remember it in an hour or so ....... My brain is getting to be like a dial up nowadays ....... if you're old enough to know what I mean. :boohoo:
Looks like its in good shape too from the second picture, pretty much flush on both sides. very nice.
I gotta agree,,, that's one nice box !! :tu
,,,,,,,the stone is O.K. too,,,, ;)
They truly are very petty stones.
I don't personally have enough knowledge about the Charnley hones to comment on that but some one spent the time to make the custom box so they thought it was nice! And the seller didn't use another box they had laying around to put it in....
Just havin a little fun....
Thanks guys. I have heard a lot about them so I thought i'd try one. I'm waiting on a 1K Chosera & that's gonna be it for stones i think. If I had the money, I'd upgrade to all Chosera's instead of my regular Naniwa's.
