Straight Razor Honing - 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Nantlle Valley Stone - Welsh Slate and 🇸🇰 Rozutec Slovakian Natural

Here we further explore the a couple more Euro / UK Hones

About the stones:
Wade & Butcher 7/8 honed on 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Nantlle Valley Stone - Welsh Slate.
The Nantlle Valley is the site of oldest slate quarry in Wales at Cilgwyn, and during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries it was a major centre of the Slate industry in Wales. The quarries of the area are a World Heritage Site. The Nantlle Valley Whetstone is a very hard, and very fine blue-green slate, appearing more grey when dry. With distinctive dark lines and patterns on the surface from the original bedding planes. From the examples I have it is very similar to the Glanrafon; equally slow, but perhaps marginally finer. And it's a very good razor finisher.

Straight Razor Hone - ERN Crown and Sword 6/8 honed on 🇸🇰 Rozutec Slovakian Natural Stone
Rozsutec (Slovakia)
This is a sedimentary sandstone from Slovakian Mala-Fatra Mountains. It is known for being hard, consistent, fairly fine and aggressive. It is around a 6k stone, but can go up to 8k+ with oil and lack of pressure. These are newer to the market and not well known outside of their region in Europe but can be found on the international market. The stone often has visible layers to it which variate between muddy brown and grey.

Honing Channels I follow and enjoy.
