Would you call this a mintish swaty? I see a little chip in the lower left corner, but if there is still a watermark on it, than it must mean it was never used?
I just won it on a local auction site- 30 bucks.
What do I need to know about it? Have I got this right:
Lap it at first to see how flat it is (if not- lap it),
3-10 laps for touch ups- fast hone,
grit 8k-10k,
no need to lap again in a long time,
Anything else?
I really wanted a swaty, from Marburg-Maribor, a part of Slovenia- former Yugoslavia, as was Croatia, a city where my grandparents met and where my father served the army. Now I got one at last!
