Stone is really beautiful. My polishing skills are quite subpar so I'd avoid directly commenting on the performance of the stone. Instead I'll reference Nutmeg's post

"You will get a spectacular kasumi. The clad will be hazy and the the core will lean toward semi-mirror. This uchi has the right hardness to show show some fine details from the steel and iron and a hint of silver effect. This stone has also the right softness to make the blade look scratch free, even very close."

Example of a quick polish can be found below.

After


Kind of busy for the rest of day, I'll get back to everyone in a bit.

Thanks all.

Bump. A really beautiful stone would love to see this rehomed without listing a knife with it.
