Up for sale is most of my stone collection. Feel free to make me an offer, the worst I can say is no.
Suminagashi Suita / Uchigumori
This rare treat is a double sided piece of suminagashi suita and uchigumori. The suita side is softer, fast, and an amazing polisher in its own right. The uchigumori side is of the harder variety, and is domed which means it was likely used in the sword polishing manner. I have never seen another stone that offers both suita and uchi like this.
197 x 69-70 x 25-30
$450 plus shipping
Suminagashi Suita
Full size and thick workhorse suita. I used this in my main lineup of jnats for sharpening and polishing my Japanese knives and woodworking tools. It is fast, hard-ish, and fine. Once in a while if you use too much pressure it releases a particle that could scratch your jigane, but this stone is easy to figure out. I placed it on a plastic piece because it is attached to a wooden base that has four tiny nails sticking out a millimeter or two from the bottom - this is to keep it from moving around on a workbench. You could probably just hammer them back into the base if you don’t want them marring your work area.
The stone itself is 205 x 76-77 x 28-31
$500 plus shipping
