OMG :disdain: What am I Jon just a "recreational user" ??:scratchhead::nunchucks:

 

[JBroida]

have you broken the 100+ stone mark yet?

 

[Chef Niloc]

have you broken the 100+ stone mark yet?

1) we talking just nats? Then not yet :biggrin:
2) you counting stones you get and sell or ones you keep? I say if you don't have and use it for a year it's just another piece of inventory
3) if you do have 100+ j-nats in a personal collection does your wife know?? She could be wearing that much money in rock on a finger....you know I got a big mouth:razz:

 

[JBroida]

haha... not just j-nats... they make up maybe 30% of my collection... and i'm talking only about my personal collection... not ones that i sell

its all in the name of "product testing" or at least thats what i tell sara starting this business has been the worst ofr my addiction

maxim has me beat on naturals for sure and i trust his opinion on them very much (even though he sometimes comes from more of a straight razor attitude )

 

[Chef Niloc]

Ok you might have me beat in quantity but what about size? You see that big boy Maxims got on the way to me?
Just did a quick count:
14 j-nats
2 Belgian
5 Arkansas
21 nats

38 other stones not counting Strops or finger stones

That's 59
Dare I ask Maxim how many he has

 

[JBroida]

lol... that sounds like a lot of fun... i've got some pretty large stones too

 

[Marko Tsourkan]

a little birdy told me Max has a room in his house for his stone collection, I have not seen pics though.

By my last count I have 32 Naturals, most Jnats, and total of 40ish with the synthetics, not counting finger stones.
More stones are on the way , but before I started with naturals, I thought I am a person that does not have addictions...
