What kind of japaneese stone is this? Any good?
Anyone know what kind of stone this is?
Is it any good for straight razor honing?
My girlfriend stumbled upon this in a second-hand store, cheap, maybe $12.
I am fairly new to straight razors in general, just bought my first straight razor
(Dovo "Astrale" Ebony), don't own any other stones yet.
Do I need a diamond stone to straight this one out first maybe?
Is it enough with just this stone and a diamond stone? =)

The stone is smooth to the touch, I was fairly surprised of this when I first saw it.
Any response is welcome
