What is a JNAT?

A j-nat is shorthand for Japanese natural stone. There are too many variations to list and they seem to range in price from a couple of hundred to thousands of dollars. Some people hold them in high esteem. I am a poor boy having to content myself with naniwas, Nortons, Shaptons, Eschers and coticules.

Didn't you see the price list ? Don't forget I'm an old guy...... been around a long time.

Hehe, well played, sir!

I'm a little too poor for the price of Japanese natural stones, but thanks for clearing up the question of the abbreviation. Also wanted to let you know that the below part of your signature helped me with the touch I now have on my str8. Just thought I'd share.

An old barber told me to hold the razor securely but lightly enough so that is if it pulls the razor will flex in your fingers and be less likely to nick. He also told me to never force it if it does pull. Following that advice I have rarely gotten a nick.

Glad to hear that is working for you. Still working for me.
