What kind of sharpening stone is this? Thank you for your answers!

I little of 5 inches long & close to 2 inches wide & 1 inch thick.

Welcome to B&B. Feel free to introduce yourself to the gallery when you have the time. Your geographical location can provide some clues as to identifying stones, assuming that the stone was sourced locally.

Top surface seems to be stained with swarf ridden oil. Underneath, looks like it could be a Washita, or further afield from one of the end pictures, perhaps a Turkey stone, although I'm inclined towards the former.

Hi and welcome.

Like Alan has already said, I believe that's a washita...possibly a soft ark, but my guess is washita.

All members should be aware that this is why we have Item 7 in the Terms of Use;

A guy comes here, makes one post, gets an identification, and is able to increase his profit on ebay with almost zero effort on his part.
Please look at who you would give advice to.
