Hey y'all, up for sale is a medium soft Uchigumori Hato. This stone is covered in Namazu and most of the renge lies within the Namazu.
This stone has a firm base with a silky, fine, smooth feedback. It leaves an automatic smoky kasumi finish with huge contrast in seconds.
It sits right before Jito in hardness/fineness but is definitely Hato.
No inclusions on face. Lapped flat but a little more lapping could be done. Nice tall stone with years of use here.
If this was full size, it would demand a much higher price point.
160x60x38
Price: $300
