"Carborundum hone"
Out visiting my folks in Oregon 2 weeks ago (and hitting antique stores) found this nice Carborundum hone (at least thats what the sticker said
). A natural combo it seems to have a unusually thick BBW side. I t measures 1 1/4 thick with the coti part about 1/4 to 3/8 thick. There's a odd saw cut in the BBW about 3/8 deep like someone tried to cut some of it off with a handsaw. Seems pretty flat so i might soften the edges and give it a few strokes as is. I'm not a coti user (this is my second wild caught one) and i'm not one who likes messing with hones so i'll see how it goes. Who knows maybe it will be a keeper. ( Oh yeah, snagged it for $8.00!)
