I have my great grandfathers razor hone. It has been laying in a drawer since I was a kid and never gave it much thought. It is very hard, very smooth and I had always assumed it was a stone to sharpen knives and it would do so very poorly. Talking to one of my uncles he told me what it was and that my Gt grandfathers razor used to be in there with it but it was dropped and the blade broke in two so it was tossed out.
It’s not very big maybe 2x4”x 1” thick. Some sort of natural stone and it is slightly dished out on one side and the edges have some chips. I don’t want to use it but is it possible to do a level on it and make it serviceable again?
