Tons and Tons of sharpening stones

Just spent a ludicrous amount of money on a Tam O... need to clear out room and funds:

All prices are shipped in US, if you are buying multiples, I can be flexible on price as I'll save a lot on shipping.

First are the coticules. I've owned HUNDREDS of coticules and have been reducing my collection for years. Anything I buy now that isn't top tier, I immediately turn around and resell. You will love these coticules.

First pic: left to right:

Strange 3 layer one of yellow, freckled brown and VERY crazy BBW. BBW is unusable, Yellow is good. Brown is a mystery. $70

Small extremely hard, fine and slow $45

Very small extremely hard, fine and slow $35

Big ol freaking chuck of ultra fine, moderately fast, very hard... performs similar to an ultra-fine La Veinnette but more subtle feedback. $90

Literally the first coticule I ever owned. No clue vein, but it behaves like the stone every La Verte wishes it was. Stone has a waxy, almost soapy feel to the surface (I forget what vein that indicates, but the vein descriptions on Bart's site mention it iirc). It is possibly the easiest to use coticule I've ever felt... including with Dilucot. I've kept this over a decade... there's a reason why. $130

Second pic: Left to right

These are all Torrey "Old Rock" Italian Hone paddles.

I snap these up every chance I get. They are thin, but ultra-fine and hard, and quite fast for their refinement. Tend to be pink/salmon and freckled. I've encountered ONE of these paddles that wasn't stellar, and it's long gone.

Stone 1: $70
Stone 2: $70
Stone 3: $70
Stone 4: $60
Stone 5 was the first of these I bought and is still the best (though maybe I never gave the others much of a chance), this is one of my most used coticules. Hard, fine and fast... at least to my mind even a little more so than the others. I like this stone... a lot. $90

And on the far right, a little "New Vein Ayr Stone" on a paddle with a neat cover. $75

Next up:

A big old vintage Jnat. I call this a prefinisher, but you can get an OK shave off it. It's fast with great feedback. I think it's a really high quality stone, just not a razor finisher. Found a split along the side almost immediately after I started using it. Put some CA in there and not been a problem since. $125

A Two toned Thuri. Thought this was a broken 10" originally, but upon browsing Hatzicho's site recently, I think it's probably one of his stones. The way its sealed looks like what I've seen on some of his. Good for hand honing, very awkward to use on a bench. I bench hone. If you do to, you will probably want to mount it on a base. $135

10x2" "Yellow Lake" with some remnants of the green label. Grecian type Lynn idwal. Label was fused in the bottom of the box, I pried some bits out and glued them on the top of the case. $130

4x1x.5" Pike Hard ark. Small break/flaking on back side $25

~6" Translucent ark. One corner chipped off. $65

~6" Dark Blue Thuringian. $85

Strange little hard stone. Works well. Much harder than a Thuri. Doubt it's a Lynn idwal. Not sure what it is. $20

Two little Slurry stones. One I'm pretty sure is a Thuri, one I received along with a Thuri, but I'm not positive what it is. $10 each.
