They don't apply exact rules to rate a Coticule select or standard. It's more a matter of when they feel a Coticule has a few cosmetic issues that might lead to a customer being less happy when he compares it to a "normal" one, they will rate it "standard". All the rest is "select".stalker said:bart this is not the standard grade but maurice have sold me as VEINETTE KOSJIER i have paid it 50 euro
for 100 x 40! and not the 39 euro.
bu the honing surface is absolutely perfect......i don't now if the selected or standard quality is rated considering the perfection of the honing surface..
Even if the issue with the cracked stone has been solved, I think it may be useful to remind that CA can be softened and cleaned with acetone.Bart said:Clean any spilled CA immediately after application, because when it cures you can only lap it off.
