Hey Rusen, i tried mine, not really long enough to be on the safe side evaluating it in detail....Quote:

A progression with Mikawa Naguras worked well enough and i got some nice results concerning the shave.
So i personally think that my stone was a good buy...
As mentioned further tests need to be done to give a proper Statement:
- Usage as a plain finisher with slurry and with plain water
- try to use it with a one stone honing tecnique and check its cutting power (after 1K)
- play with different nagura type stones
- test with Koma finish
- etc..
Thats how mine looks like, it was called "Maruoyama Asagi Nashiji":

A frend of mine from the forum with big experience in the apanese stones , tell me that the Maruoyama stones are with very weak cuting strenght and very soft , a woodworking store stones for every family in Japan
from thr clips in the net q they look diferent from te other eastern stones
But the western stones like wakasa and other mines had a good stones also so i guess that it will be suprise .
I do not know what to expect , as i do not use micawa nagura i like god old fashion slurry / Tomo /
