conditioning stones

    My favorite was the K&H  139  stone .... they are no longer manufactured. What's a good alternative?  I use them on an aluminum slot/trough call ..... they give them a distinct sound that is much better than with sandpaper or grit cloth.

I like the Primos Slick Stick, seems to work real well.

Mad calls used to have a stone & I carried it for years, lost it & haven't seen another.  Mike

the Knight and Hale was the perfect grit for glass and crystal.  I have one that is wore down to about 3/8 long, it was about 2 1/2 when I bought it.   it is soft and will leave a lot of grit/powder on the call. But it will condition a glass call perfectly.

I have several others laying around that I condition new calls with.  I wont put a brand new stone on a new call, they will gouge the crap out of the crystal.  I have taken new stones and run them up and down on my belt sand to get them started, even have run the across a flat file before.

ive got an old knight and hale that says sanding stone model 139,its the best ive found,like the guys above said,its really soft and leaves powder but it works perfect,i never can do a very good job with the others ive tried but this one works perfect.

The old Knight and Hale stone is my favorite also. I got lucky and found one a couple of years ago. I called them and some guy found one in his desk and sent it to me for free. I like it much better than the stone on a stick versions.

Slick stick works for me. Its a handy little tool.

Primos slick stick or cane creek calls makes a nice stone.  Scoot

 I've used the slick stick for years. Works for me.

I like my Slick Stick for an all in one type tool.
My stone from David Halloran seems to do a better job conditioning.
