Sharpening stone

I have several blacks and 1 translucent. Only one of the blacks I have is close to being as fine as the translucent.
Use to buy scrap pieces at curio shops for 25-50 cents apiece.
Mine are mainly used for trigger work and sharpening razor blades.
 
In my opinion it'd be better to not buy any Arkansas stone as they're outdated and have several flaws easily overcome by synthetics.
 
the black or yellow translucent is the finst grade surgical black is close. as far as outdated no they aren't, I would take a nat over a syn any day of the week.
