Yep, that is old world American or European design. The half laps are a dead giveaway. The Japanese would have chiseled the hollow where the stone rests with chisels. And you are correct about craftsmanship. It is dying in this country. One of the reasons I have my woodworking channel. I'm not there yet, but I'm trying.

Don't sweat the lint. I just make sure I run my stones under water and use my hand to rub them until I'm certain there isn't any on them before I use them. I like to use a cloth to rub them down good after use. I think it helps to clean them better, so I just deal with any lint left on the stone before sharpening begins. And, since i leave mine on a wire rack when not in use it's a good idea to make sure they're clean before i use them anyway. Of course, I sharpen in my bathroom next to the sink, so access is easy. Can't wait for the follow up video(s). Very cool stone, IMHO.

The only guess that i have, is that it may be a European stone, there were a couple of types, definitely not coticule, but its probably not a slate stone either, im guessing that its a sandstone, because of how it has a layered look to it, im not certain though. I dont personally know of sandstone being used for sharpening in the US , but nothings out of the question.

Rooster, Here's a "what fer" for you to consider. What if that stone is actually a JNAT that was gifted to an American who then proceeded to manufacture a box for it and never flattened it? I actually think that is exactly what it is... a JNAT. To me it looks like a Kiita (key-tuh) or a Suita (sweet-uh). Does it give a hazy looking edge? That is a trademark characterisitc of a JNAT.

That's most likely a hindostan. Sandstone from indiana. They are incredibly variable in porosity, hardness and fineness. Some can be really easy to lap, others can be hard as hell. Some are so porous it is like whatever you put on it falls through the rock, others are pretty compact and can keep it on top. They were not held in the same regard as washitas (sort of the gold standard of the period for consistent cutting power which is what was valued above all), but they are interesting stones. It's actually cut in a cool way for one, usually you end up with the parallel lines on the sides that make the stone almost look like wood but here they are at a right angle to the primary surface almost. There are several on my channel to look at if I recall. That's not an amakusa or a dalmore yellow.

I have two Hindostans in my collection. Both have the sediment layers, called Tidal Rhythmites. Until your post, I thought these layers were mandatory. But it's hard to argue with a photo of a labeled hindostan that appears to have no layers. What's more interesting is the the orange stripes in the photo appear to match the orange stripes in the mystery stone. I think you nailed it Rob, it's a Hindostan and furthermore, based on the mud, it could be a "soft" Hindostan. My two stones will definitively not produce a mud like the mystery stone. Except the label in the photo says "Hard".
