Vitrified diamond stone (not resin bond)

894 g weight base + stone (after a little soak with water)

Stone is 220mm long, 71mm wide, 16mm tall diamond layer just under 2mm thick

Base is 235mm x 85mm x 30mm tall, feels like oak with a shiny water resistant finish

Comes with nagura, feels about 600 grit -- not as coarse as the ones that come with other diamond stones I've used.

Soaking stone, cuts faster than my fsk 400, dishes faster than it though. Used maybe ... An hour or two? I have to wait about 4 min soak before it stops being so thirsty. After that it's good. Closest cutting feel and action to the JKI 400 vitrified prototype I got to try . . . That's my favorite cutting bench stone I've used. It doesn't ... Cut as coarsely as the BBB/fsk 400, but it cuts faster because it wears faster and is porous. It seems porous stones just cut faster, more surface area or something about abrasive exposure

Compared to the resin diamond stones, this cuts faster, is more porous, has better feedback, and gives a more aggressive edge. It cuts a bit deeper into steel too. Feels a lot like a regular synthetic stone soaker, dishes slower than regular synthetics, dishes ... Idk compared to resin diamond. Faster? It cuts much faster though. Tradeoff. This one does make a kasumi on iron easier than other diamond stones

The only one of these I've ever seen lol. I've heard of it mentioned before though

Other resin diamond stones I've used include JKI diamond 1000, sankyo 1000, Sanwa kenwa 1000, another porous 1000 tan color, NSK 1000. Haven't tried the naniwa resin or king resin 1000. There's a king resin 1000 that is not this stone, the resin one has an aluminum stone under the diamond layer, this one has a porous stone under a porous diamond layer
