    Default new coticule

    I didn't expect to win this one, but I did. It looks like a natural combo, but the BBW side has never been lapped or used. There's a bit of chipping on the corners, and it's slightly dished, but nothing a little lapping won't fix. It measures a little over 5" x 1". I'm looking forward to testing it out!

    Be sure to lap both sides. Although they do not have the same reputation as Coticules, Belgian Blue Whetstones are interesting in their own right, not just as a backer for the yellow stone.

    I definitely want to try out the BBW side!

    Nice one - white stripes in the bbw and naturally bonded may indicate a 'la veinette'...

    I was wondering about that. I think I may have been super lucky with this one!
