"Look what I found"
My first post over here in the knife section, guess this is we’re the cool lads play. In the past 30 plus years, I only remember seeing 2 Lile Knives for sale at the markets going for prices that would make a flea blush. This score is the first time I have ever seen any branded “Lile Hand Made Knives” Arkansas stones. I was surprised to find them from a very motivated seller. A complete three stone set, marked on the stone ends W, Soft, and H. The stones look and feel above average of what would have been available in the 70’s-80’s. Lile maybe cherry-picked thru the inventory to carry his name. All are 8x2x1 inch in matching labeled wood boxes. Under the Hard was a tag for Smith Whetstone Co, guessing point of origin. I already have several set of stones I use for knifes and Cutlery, so these won’t see much use. They will be conserved and preserved for the future
