I got this stone ~5 years ago, and I'm pretty sure I picked it up at sharpeningsupplies.com, but they won't let me see orders that far back, and I no longer see it on their site. I also have no memory whatsoever of the name of the stone. It's a large stone, similar in size to the Green Brick of Joy. It's great at hogging off metal for reprofiling and even for leaving a nice, clean, coarse final edge if I so choose. It still has plenty of life left in it (has lost maybe 3/16" total thickness due to dishing and flattening), but at some point I may want to replace it or have another in my arsenal, so I'd like to know the name of it. Thanks.

I'd think Sharpening Supplies could probably ID that stone, if you send them an email with the pertinent info (approx. time frame of purchase, etc) and pics of logos & such. Their 'Product Support' page does give an email contact for any questions customers might have. I'd otherwise link it here, but I don't know or remember if they're actually a BF sponsor site or not. The customer support links are seen if you scroll to the bottom of any of their site's pages.

And if they didn't actually sell it, they still might be knowledgable enough to recognize the brand or logo markings on it. If you're a customer of record, they might go a little further to help you out, especially if you're interested in replacing it.
 
Thanks, guys. No, not 100% sure of the supplier. I bought a bunch of stuff from them at the time, but I also picked up a few things from other sources at the same time, so I could be mixing them up.
