English;

That's interesting. Next time I have to set a bevel, I'll try the bad Swaty & see how it compares to sandpaper.

Jimmy;

On my hone, the back side is glossy & glazed, it has clearly never been lapped or used. Are you sure both sides are meant to be used? It sure doesn't look like it. Or is the effect you mention an unintended side effect of Swaty's manufacturing process? (i.e. that the heavy grit sinks to the bottom of the mold)
