Was gonna say....Batting 500! ;)
That’s a price you can live with. The goal is about ten bucks a blade for me.
I'm OK paying a little extra for good quality razors, but when they have odd ball razors, that they do a google search on, find nothing and think it must be a rare piece so let's stick $300 on it. Makes me laugh.
Hone sure looks like a Frictionite to me. THough they did make similar "not 00" hones. But it could very well be a stone worthy of more than being taken to the tool shed.
Well maybe I should give it a bit of a clean, and then test it on some razors. See what kind of an edge I can pull from it, before I demote it to work chisels.
