Damn, guess I really just am clueless in the hone department.

    oh no you can do it for a few hundred....but thats before RAD hits and thats when it could EASILY get past the hundreds!!!
    and if you want to go to paramount or drury lane shot me a PM and we can get you tickets.

    Yea, I was thinking of going with the superstones, but give me a week to read through that monstrous thread, and maybe I'll have changed my mind! LOL. And that'd be excellent, I'll take you up on that soon enough! Just as soon as I can get a breather from work. It's been unbelievable lately. Do you have any suggestions on plays to see? I've never been, so I'm not sure I would even know what I might like.

    That tiny tee appears to be a boker tree, also the etch on that blade looks similar to the "king cutter" etch.. If your not familiar search boker king cutter, very popular blade.

    I actually was looking at some thread on Norton hones, and I noticed somebody's Boker... It is the same exact tree. And I looked up the king cutter, and it is in fact the exact same etching. I'm wondering if Greer and Laing were part of Boker, or associated with them at some point?

    Possibly Greer and Laing contracted Boker to make the razor with their name on it.

    I am pretty sure my cousin used to do shows at Drury Lane. Lake Zurich, here.
