Creatan Hone

Cretan/ Creatan...which is correct?

How do you use yours? I have one and am trying to learn it.

I do not see this at the 1k level as suggested by some.

Curious to see what others think and how they are using theirs.

It's a natural - it cuts differently than a synth.
You can use it to set bevels easily enough. Heavy work - maybe not so much.
It has to be soaked for a good long time and you need a good slurry on top.

I'll try soaking it a little more and see what that does.

I believe they are mined in Crete, Greece? It that right?

If so, Cretan would be the correct spelling.

I found this, which some of you might find interesting.
