Can’t beat that. Those softer stones with a slurry are a joy to hone on.
Just Used Thuringian First Time and OMG

Touched up a very old Wade and Butcher last evening and used this morning. The razor is a near wedge and I should have used tape when honing. However, the stone did improve the edge producing a pretty good result using three passes.
I’m building my muscle memory now with the x strokes. The stone is in my hand and I’m have trouble tuning the blade over.

Fumbling about.
That sucker looks like it's about 14 x 4. Huge looking. Great find.
Happy honing,
Jim

LOL, its a optical illusion. The stone is 2.5 by 7 if I remember. Have you experienced how the slurry will cause a suction?

Yes, I know exactly what you mean by the slurry will cause a suction between the slurry stone and the main stone. Very noticeable it is.
Why?
Great optical illusion and still a good sized Thuringian. Nice.
Happy honing,
Jim

Muscle memory beginning to develop as I touched up the 13/16 Bismarck GD.
