It is really hard to quantify. I use my Eschers with a light slurry. I began to do that because the label suggests it and I found it works well for me. I know that some renowned honemeisters prefer water only on the Escher because they have told me so. I only have one J-nat, a Nakayama Asagi. I haven't used slurry with it mainly because it seems to be a hard stone, I don't have the naguras, and it works wonderfully with water only. As for describing an Escher edge ..... smooth would be the adjective the comes immediately to my mind. It is my favorite of all of the finishers I've used to date.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
