This is what I use.The Takashima Awasedo from Japanese Knife Imports is one such stone.

It is better to ask Jon about it as every Jnat is different.
And finishing Jnats dont really have grits. You can ask what kind of finish dose it make ? How soft or muddy it is etc.
What about not $200 options? Are there any in the $50-$80 range. I know it is a very limiting budget, but there has to be something out there that will work.
... there's a whole range of naturals that will follow one of these 800's nicely.
Not meant as a 'finisher' I think!
Naniwa superstone 10k best bang for the buck polishing stone.
I have one of these stones on hand but never gave it a try. Pulled it out today. I found it polishes flat surfaces nicely but it didn't really produce much mud for me.
8k superstone is plenty good, IMO. Have you tried the 5k Rika? Do you really want a super fine edge?
