I got this guy a few years ago but I think it got lost in the shipment cause it took almost 5 month to get here. I don't remember much of it just my own newbish observations. I got it from 1 of the Japanese sellers but I don't remember who .
1. It raises mud quite easily with a diamond plate.
2. It smells very earth when doing so
3. Dries very very fast... Like 3-5 min when typical synthetic maybe 20-30 minutes
4. I think it's middle grit, perhaps 6-8k
5. I only used it a few times and I saw a haze finish, but no expert.
6. Stone is very smooth, but edges would need to be chamfered
I would ideally like to trade it for a quality paring knife. I only a crappy 2.5" one that's quite useless and would love a 3.5". No idea if it's fair value or, so please tell me
stone itself 6.2 to 6.5" long around 2.5" wide. At least 1" thick but few spots little thicker. Good weight.
here are the pics of it. I would like to keep to USA only due to shipping costs.
Thank you
