who makes the mizuyama? i have never use the gesshin. but i did a shootout between 6 different 1k stones though.

king hyper (hard) 1k
chosera 800
shappro 1k
glass 1k
kunsuto 1k
naniwa hibiki 1k

the king and hbiki are soakers the rest s&g but other than that there was not really that much difference in cutting speed or feel between these stones. they do create different finishes though. contrast between iron/ss cladding and edge steel but that it pretty much (glass and hibiki pretty much removes all contrast) and the king was probably the best with contrast, but the chos and shappro was not to shabby either iirc. the kunsuto felt gritty.

its not that much difference between 1k stones imo, not on ss/carbon/powder, just get one that people like and use it. soaker or s&g.
