Hello guys, it has been a year since my post. I hope you all are doing well!
Last summer, I visited my wholesaler friend’s in Kyoto and purchased a considerable amount of stones from him, and we were having a good time chatting and eating in some local restaurant and bar. After that trip, I had remotely (through telephone) ordered a few more stones from him during fall and winter and had them picked up by my friends.
And now, it is summer again, and so I decide to visit him again in Kyoto and make another huge purchase there.
For this reason, I will sell some of the stones that I purchased from him last year to gather enough funds for my next visit.
That being said, the stones I that listed for this post were all purchased directly from the Kyoto wholesaler, and so I have absolute confident on their authenticity, quality, and performance.
As always, I will follow the similar framework for stone testing that I established from the previous posts in order to provide the most honest feedback and result possible. For those who are interested to look at the method and framework again, please refers to this post.

This time, the artificial stone that I used for resetting the bevel is Tanaka Toishi Michibiki WA #600. And the testing knife is a 21mm white 2 Tasai kiridashi.

Due to the length of the post, I will split the poster into three sections, including middle-grit, finishing, and miscellaneous.
