As we've seen from japan-tool.com in AU, they have the full line of JP glass, obviously formulated for the Japanese/carbon steel chisel and plane blade market.

The info I got from USA is that they will be carrying the 4K, 8K and 16K JP stones for now. I will be looking into more options from them as I am liking the feel of the 8K JP stone right now....
Tom,
Have you noticed that the 8000 Jp is sooooo nice to the older sheffield blades in comparison with some of the harder steel razors? The bevels look more polished than scratched.
