Fiddich River hone thread

[LJS]

I could not find a thread dedicated to the Fiddich River hone, so I decided to start one. I was searching for my Glanfaron stones but found a Fiddich River hone in the pile instead. Post them up gentlemen.

Hah. The Ralph Steadman stone.

Here's mine which came courtesy of @rideon66. It might as well be the sister stone of @LJS's one above; very, very similar colour and patterning.

And here with a larger one, now in Rick's capable hands.

And a shout out to @Darth Scandalous for what might still be the greatest ever post on B&B...

Looky what I got...

I'm sure various people saw this listed recently on UK ebay as a possible Glanrafon or Fiddich River Stone. From the pics it looked probably like one of the two, a maybe a bit more like a Fiddich. But you couldn't really say for certain and it wasn't that cheap for a gamble, I got it a bit below...

I think Rick is quietly trying to outdo Tim. Maybe Rick and Tim are just two accounts for the same man, who’s too sheepish to admit how much rock has been consolidated under one roof. Has anyone ever seen them in the same room together?

And this is coming from someone who employs a specialist guy to proxy ship them interesting-looking coticules from UK Ebay...?

You're not pulling the wool over anyone's eyes here, my friend!

Just keeping it going. There aren’t many out there. Back when I had two. Which the second is now with Oli.
I just cropped it out in the previous pic to let him post it.

I'm a gentleman dagnabbit! There is no wool to be found here...
