Thank you @Alum of Potash ! I'm going to try lather too. Do you have/use the slurry stone on the Anchor?
Cheers, Steve

Easy now this is a family forum!What is a coticoocle?
I’d say that’s a big part of it.Either that or the more I hone the better I get.
As promised; 3 coticules in three days.It didn't happen without pictures.
Thanks for posting.As promised; 3 coticules in three days.
The largest:7" x 1 13/16th - like a cross between the "scratchy" and "glassy" types. Really smooth feel.
Middle one: Very hard. Unresponsive feel under the blade.
The wee one: Came on a wooden paddle, the sheath for which says "German Stone and Strop" (distributer / historic circumstance / linguistic designation..? Who knows).
Maybe I'll add new leather & re-stick the stone. There's a concave in the original surface, so the "off" side is now the honing surface, and it is extremely hard, almost hybridish, with a (quartz?) inclusion. Shame it's so small.
