Thanked: 1936Nani 12k followed with leather. RAD hit me hard and I have to quit for a while, wanting to try the nakayama's. I've had HAD once before & hope I get no relapses...not as bad as Jimmy though ;-)
Southeastern Oklahoma/Northeastern Texas helper. Please don't hesitate to contact me.
Thank you and God Bless, Scott

Nakayama Maruichi Asagi for me.
Not cheap by any means, but to me it is the perfect finisher.
Ever since I bought it, I am free of HAD. I even sold my 8x3 coticule because I hadn't used it in over a eyar since I bought the nakayama.
Here is my post about that stone:
