    I have a shoubudani mizu asagi that I like a lot. It is a nice 6"x2" that I use as finishing stone with just water. I flattened mine with sandpaper as I didn't want to risk my plate, went 400,800,1200 to give it somewhat polished feel. I really enjoy the stone but don't have anything to compare it to jnat wise , planning on getting either an ozuku or another shoubudani full size. I enjoy the grey cloudy look some of these stones have.

    All of the mines (Nakayama not being an exception) produced stones of various grit size equivalents. If you are looking for a shoubudani finisher you better discuss with a reputable dealer what you are looking for and see whether they can fix you up.
