I do not have a coticule slurry stone, but i was cleaning the garage and found an old survival knife that has a small sharpining stone in its sheath. The stone apears to be a low grit, anybodies guess would be better than mine. It is definantly more abrasive than my man made BBW/Coti combo, and its perfectly flat because it's never been used. I used it on the BBW because i was'nt sure if it was slate or BBW and it worked quite well for raising a slurry. Was happy to see that the slurry was purple because i'm new to hones/razors and purchased it on Ebay. Wish i could have afforded one bigger than 4" X 2", but times are tuff. Is it possible to safely use it as a slurry stone?
I also purchased an Otto Fromm #50 red head on Ebay, and was wandering if it is a quality razor to begin with?
Thanks for the help,
Louis.
