More commonly they are 62-64, which is about the same as high quality customs. I know Tim Zowada come 63 HRC (or was it 62?) +- 0.5.

So asks a lot of questions indeed. Buying from So is slightly more complex than asking the price and handing over the money
I bought the nagura stone with mine, and I am very happy with it.

If I may ask, what are the dimensions?
Cheers Bruno.

Umm, haven't really measured it. Hang on, I'll go get my tape. ...

It's approx. 203mm long, 70mm wide, 23mm thick at the thicker side, 18mm thick on the thinner side.

Looks roughly similar in dimensions to the Norton 4/8.
