Pickup from my recent trip to Japan. I can't find them available anywhere outside of Japan, so I figured a few of y'all would like to check em out, so I grabbed a few extras.

First of all, this is not a Chosera. I do not know a lot about these stones, as this is the first time I've ever seen them. Only one shop I visited in Japan had Naniwa stones, and these stood out from their limited supply. I can't say what line these are from, due to a lack of info online, but the one I am using has good feedback after soaking. I don't own any other 8000 grit stones to compare it to, but it feels a bit softer than what I expected. I quite enjoy using it.

If any of you wonderful folk have any further details on this line of stones, I would love your input!

From my experience: If you're looking for your unicorn chosera snow white 8000, this is not gonna scratch that itch. But if you want a nice affordable Naniwa 8000 grit stone, with good feedback, and a beautiful bright white color, this will be perfect for you.

Size: 210mm X 51mm
Weight: 584g

Asking: $70 $60 $45 Including US shipping and paypal fees

Alright let's go down to $45. Losing money at this point, but I'd rather they not just become dust collectors haha. If there's no interest at this price, I'll just save them to give away as gifts to friends and family 👍
