Yes... another coticule...
OK , if my wife don't throw me out now, I know I can continue buying stones... Collected this coticule today - rest was given to me for free... (Herder , MK No 7 , Stryptic pencil , Alum block , unknown boxed hone) - will lap the stone tomorrow.[
I was tryin' to figure out which is worse,ignorance or apathy...Then I realized I don't know and I don't care...

Looks nice! Just needs some lapping. I once had one with the wavy pattern like that a nice combination stone. Remember you can always find another wife but never another coticule like that

@solitarysoldier - I am afraid not...Been married for 30 years now , can find cotis anywhere (mind you this is Belgium , coticule country , cotis a gogo ) but I'll never find a wife like mine again...

I'm jealous of that nice looking WIFE.
Of course I jest (not that she doesn't look nice because she definitely does. You're a lucky man!) but it's good that you feel that way after that much time. I've been married for 24 years also so I know how you feel. Good on ya mate.Iron by iron is sharpened, And a man sharpens the face of his friend. PR 27:17

Okay . lapped the rock - took me quite some time - without any doubt a La Dressante au Bleu hence the orange shades and the holographic metallic blue inclusions in the BBW - very hard stone - will give it a try on the Helje later on, will see how it performs

Thanked: 2209.

Thanks for posting this. Looks like an interesting stone. Let us know how it compares to the Salm stone.Randolph Tuttle, a SRP Mentor for residents of Minnesota & western Wisconsin

That's a darn pretty stone. Manganese inclusions, freckles and a promising looking blue side; I'd almost get jealous. Almost.
Best regards,
Pieter

Beautiful stone! Love the sideways shots where you see how much yellow material is there compared to blue. Usually, it's the other way 'round. Looks like a nice haul overall. Good luck with it.
