$40.00

Old oil sharpening stone in wood base holder that was found in an old carpenter chest that had wood planes in it. The stone measures 7 x 1 7/8” x 1” thick. Light brownish color that feels like fine grit hone. Sheen to surface shows a slight wave to surface so a lapping would be necessary for perfect flatness. Some edge chipping pictured and in last 2 pictures.This could be a very special stone as it has smooth finish and was found with wood planes from the 1800’s. I was unable to remove stone from wood holder, but it does have a wiggle, so I strongly believe it can be removed. Please see pictures for detail of quality, features, sheen surface, and pictures of notes mentioned above.
