He is selling Naniwa Chosera stones plus Iyoto slurry stones.

My favourites:
"Iron suspender" -- OUCH!
"The power source is belong to electrical polarization." -- Does this mean it has a positive electrical ground system?
"The grit is easy to shrink." -- What is this, a diet infomercial?
...And last, but certainly not least:
"Oxidation comes from sharp edges!"
