WTS A few Jnats for sale.

1. 140x84x25 - Nakayama Karasu Koppa
This is a pretty nice koppa that can leave a mirror finish. The Ji is quite reflective, indicative of this mine. Semi-hard like Naka tend to be. Not a beginner stone for kasumi, but manageable and worth it for the Lustre. This is mounted on a board. Line is non-toxic.

***$175+SH***
Sold




2. 196x71x26 - Narutaki Shiro Renge Suita
This is a very nice, very clean Narutaki Suita. This is an extremely clean suita and medium hard. Picture of it spritz with water. Good for Kasumi finish and sharpening.

***$350+SH***
Sold




3. 140x80x31 - Nakayama Kiita. This is a very hard razor Kiita. Takes Asano nagura sets flawlessly and can easily take you to HHT category sharpness. A lifetime or two of thickness for shaving. You will never wittle this down. It is so hard. It can also be used for Ura burr removal for single bevels knives and final sharpening on anything. Very nice stone.

***$300+SH***


4. 210x80x26 - This is a tenjyou Uchigumori from Maruoyama mine. A very clean and easy to use stone for kasumi for all ages! It leaves a clean, dark kasumi that is typical of Maruoyama mine. Lovely stone. Soft. Lots of real estate.

***$350+SH***

4. 214x76x44mm - Aiiwitani hard asagi. This is a fairly hard stone that is great for razors and ura burr removal. Too hard for kasumi. Nice size. Has a fisure along one side that is unlikely to give any issues in a few years or decades of honing. Very fine stone. Up there with Nakayama I fineness.

***$200+SH***



5. 213x90x53 - Aiiwitani hard asagi. Big. This is softer than the last asagi. It can kasumi polish but it is difficult. The line hits but it doesn't scratch. Massive stone.

***$175+SH***



6. 190x70x39 - Unknown mine Renge Suita. I have a hard time figuring out where this came from. It is a chalky suita that has a medium-hard base stone, but gives mud out readily. Thirsty stone too. Gives a similar polish to typical western stones like Umaji and Ohira. Very clean stone.

***$375+SH***

7. 218x73x31 - Maurachi Narutaki Suita. This stone is actually really nice, but as you see here, there is a layer of su to lap through. The area between su layers is absolutely divine. I wish there were no su! The line can be felt but is non-toxic. The su has spit crap out at me before, which is why I say grind through it. Once you do that, it's a ridiculous stone.

The Maurachi. Atoma generated slurry so not quite as fine of polish as potential but easier.

Hi. Help me be a bit wiser will you? "as you see here, there is a layer of su to lap through."

Su? is that the slightly translucent layered why is that a problem?
many thanks
