$10 shipped
It's this one
https://shop.kurashige-tools.com/pr...d-japanese-natural-stone-and-sharpening-skill
It's an OK book. There's a decent section on history and images of maruoyama mining process. A lot images of Nakayama stones and some stone appearance qualities and an index at the back of the book. I did use Google Lens / Google Translate on my phone to go through. There's a lot of stone feedback stuff for use or visual qualities that isn't discussed as much, and Japanese blogs or even here and Instagram do better for jnat use or feel.
Basically selling for the price of shipping and gas
159 pages paperback
