When it comes to sharpness, the edges I get off my les lat hybrid blow any other coticule edges I have shaved with, out of the water.I have a few coticules already, maybe 10?, most are smaller sized and no la dressante or les lat however. I would like to get a hybrid layer coticule stone some day as it seems uniquely different but will be patient. My face generally prefers a sharper edge than my coticules make easily and I've heard the les lat/hybrid can get closer to my favorite Arkansas shave edge.
I already have plenty of stones to be honest, just my Hone Acquisition Disorder acting up trying to have every type, in this situation a NOS 70/80s norton soft.
Fortunately I was able to return it, minus half the shipping cost.... And truely thankful it wasnt a rarer stone.
