I thought I'd share my two other coticules (you all have already seen my first one).
My second was bought from theperfectedge.com. I think it looks most like N°21 in the Vault. It certainly seems moderate in speed, at least compared to my other coticules. Pictures here: http://web.mit.edu/danjared/Public/coti/ I think the layer on this is pretty thin, but it should still last me many years.
My third coticule is a natural combo that I bought from a member at B&B. I haven't taken my own pictures yet so will post the thread: http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?t=143382&highlight=natural+combo This is my favorite coticule so far. I need to lap the BBW side to test that out. That side is very thin. The coticule side is probably thick enough to last me the rest of my life, even if it were my only razor hone. Its tag says "Pike's" on it, so I imagine that it was sold by one of the ancestors of today's Norton-Pike. What would that date it at? Pre-WWI?
Enjoy!
