Thread: Nakamaya Asagi (中山 - 水浅葱) - great stone!

Well, i have been holding back on posting any razors this month to avoid any competition to the razors being auctioned for Movember. But since there are no Nakayamas posted on the Movember board, here's an opportunity for JNAT lovers. However, if you want an entry level JNAT, please don't hesitate to bid on the ones I have posted on the Movember board today.. those are also good stones


Description: This stone is a really really good finisher. Very fine and hard, many people has different scales to qualify hardness. I'll just say is VERY hard... harder than most stones I've had, but still not "glass" hard... you will still get a very nice feeling and feedback when honing as the razor slides on it's surface.

As you can see i have not honed on ALL the surface to preserve the original stamps: "Nakayama" (中山) and "Mizu Asagi" (水浅葱), which also point the stone to have been sold by Hokuto (a very reputable japan whole-seller / distributor of Nakayama and other high end JNATs). While being very hard, an fine, and pure, it is also really big!: 21.6 x 9.1 x 3.2 cm. being so hard (Dense), it weights 1687 grs.

Yes.. a LOT of real state and a very thick jewl... YES, a very expensive stone. However, you have an amazing opportunity here... on the top left corner (as you can see in the pictures), there is crack line that, while NOT affecting honing at all and cant be flt with the razor, it is still a visual issue.Hence, this stone will go at much less than half of the price this stone would have even in Japanese market.

Conditions: Shipping (to be covered by the buyer) to almost any country using EMS for expedite delivery (about 10 business days from shipping date to deliver at your country customs office) for only $30 to the US (ask me for other countries). Note: If you prefer, I can ship it for free without tracking number under buyer’s responsibility on F&F payments.

Shipping within 3 business days after payment. PayPal payment is expected within 24 hours after commit to buy the razor in this thread. Generally willing to hear reasonable offers. *Always happy to help grouping items to reduce individual shipping costs!*.

Price: $395

Looks nice and thank you for your considerations per the Movember auctions, Gabe!

I'll buy, PM sent

Stone is sold & paid.
Thanks!
