Unknown Asagi
I just pulled the trigger on this one, was given an offer I couldn't refuse, lets see if my wife kills me lol...
This is originaly from Mr Takeda and he said he didn't remember what mine it was from. He says it's an Asagi so I have no reason not to believe him.
Anyone recognize the stamps?

In the center part of the enclosure: 正本山合砥 shou-honyama-awasedo = real nakayama whetstone.
In the bottom: 最高級品 saikoukyuuhin = top quality product.
For the other characters I'd need a close-up picture.

I think I can make out the other characters in the enclosure after all. When you get it, please compare if they look like this: 品質優良 hinshitsuyuuryou = superior quality.
