    Default New Okuda Aisa

    My new Okuda arrived a few days ago from JimR, a fine gentleman, I say! (Thank you, Sir!)

    I've just now gotten around to snapping a few photo's. Feast your eyes!


    I've already honed a couple of razors a few times now... with limited success.
    The edges are certainly showing promise though. I have a feeling the this stone will produce some really nice edges for me once I learn a bit more about her.

    She's a chunky, drab lookin' old girl, but with an understated appeal when wetted down. The photos don't show the depth of figuring to her best effect.

    There are some very faint kanji remaining on the back that only show up when wet. I will play around with my camera and see if i can' get them to show up a bit better.

    I'm really looking forward to playing with this new stone.

    Any input would be appreciated.
