  • This was a eBay find, the stone was sealed from the factory. Don't know it's exact age. Guessing late 70s maybe early 80s.

    @kcb5150 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yeah, when ppl try to pull out glued nortons from the box it always takes a big crater of stone out of the bottom. Really sucks. Makes it harder to keep your stones clean as well when they are fused in a box.

    I recently purchased a new "Hard Arkansas" stone, is it normal for them to have 1 or 2 very small pits in them?

    • @roughroosterknifesharpenin5531
      @roughroosterknifesharpenin5531  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well on a hard it's pretty uncommon, but not unheard of. I hate to say it, but I usually see that in lower quality stones. Or washitas.

    • @waynebean1521
      @waynebean1521 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I got a 3X8X1/2 hard from Dan's that was a "special" that has a couple of very tiny pits....I think that's why it was a "special". On the other hand, if you call Dan's up and special order something, the lady told me that special orders are only shipped out if they are top quality. The Washita I special ordered was perfect. The pits in the hard stone haven't bothered. It was a good bargain.

      @@waynebean1521 Same here. I also just got in a 8x2x1 "special" hard Ark from Dan's that has a tiny pit in one of the the 1x8 sides. Like yours, probably why it is a "special" aka second. Won't affect the actual usage of the stone at all and its a nice stone. The actual sharpening surfaces on both sides are first rate.

      I know that’s it’s shitty to see a dislike, but whenever someone pressed dislike, they’re helping your channel. TH-cam tends to promote and suggest videos that have a high”interaction” which is a comment, like, or dislike.
