Primitive black

Got the black from Dans today. It's a substantial piece of Arkansas measuring 9x5 with varying thickness. It's a beautiful stone and lays nice enough to use as is.

The stone beside it is an 8x3 black.

I checked this stone with a straight edge, It doesn't need lapping. It will get some conditioning with a cleaver but that's all. Plus chamfering the edges.

Thats great to hear. I have a few that were given to me by a neighbor and havent been up to the task as I hear they are a bear to lap.
 
You do realize they are never gonna do you another favor, they're gonna be so sick of all the requests they are gonna get now....
