David snagged this one for me.
~7.5x1 3/4"
In the very typical old paddle.
Pretty petrified leaves pattern. Had one of the broad stripes when he sent it to me, but that went away fast when I lapped it (didn't go deep)... does prove that the various pattern all appear kind of running into each other, rather than from different veins like with coticules.
Haven't used it yet but feels right in the middle for hardness and fineness. Should be nice. Gonna shave off it today.
Edit: definitely slower/finer than the average... doesn't really touch a finished razor. Did 20 passes and zero noticeable swarf when I wiped the blade. Should be a good one.
