Thread: Jnat Finisher honing with Water Only

Yes, I have tried with tons of them
That's part of the allure for me when it comes to Japanese Hones.
Oddly enough, the ones I find works best for me, is not the one cut from the stone.
In fact, all my best combinations involve Tomonaguras and finishers from different mines and/or stratas.

There are tons of possibilities, and so many ways to reach that edge we all chase..

I seem to have found the right combinations of Tomonagura and finisher, but the quest will definitely continue.

Should I pinpoint the one that yields the very best, or at least most consistent finish, it would be the Nakayama Asagi and an extremely hard Ozuku Nagura.

But really, the steel also plays a role here.
There are razors that simply will not get that little extra from one combination, but seems to get scary sharp on others.

From what I remember, Glen (gssixgun) described us hone-nuts as the ones chasing the rainbow as it were.
I found that very fitting...
