Hi KKF Fam,

Selling a lovely Okudo Shiro Suita that I'm just not using enough to justify keeping. Originally purchased on BST here. I took it down about 1mm through resurfacing and reflected that against it's original dimensions and price.

Censere does a much better job than I can explaining the characteristics of the stone, so I'll quote his original posting here.

"A rare knife-friendly and high-purity Okudo suita hand picked in Japan. Hand feel is a smoother one a lot like a high-quality harder Ohira I have. Gives a typical high-quality softer Eastern suita finish, with a clearer core than the said Ohira and a lighter colored but strong kasumi clad. Price factors in the missing corners.​
  • Weight: 910 906
  • Size: 207 x 78 x 26 25
  • Hardness: 4-
  • Speed: Very fast
  • Effect: 8-9k fineness with a brighter semi-mirror core and lighter-color but dense kasumi clad."

I paid $655 and looking to get $480 $450 shipped in US.
