Up for sale a Nakayama kiita-asagi mix with kan. The stone is lvl5-5+ hardness and it has a great glass like feel when honing on it. The stone works flawlessly with nagura progression followed by tomonagura, and it can be used after 8k-10k level with tomonagura only as well. The stone is fast cutter but not so fast as to overcook the edge. It works great on softer steels as well as very hard Japanese steels. The stone is mounted on a carved base and is sealed with cashew laqcuer.
The lines in the corner of the stone are not toxic and do not affect honing at all.
