    If you happen to find two of them, I'll trade you one of my Chroniks for one of them.

    Shoubudani Asagi kan.....What does "Kan" mean, other than, "The Wrath of Khan" The bad guy from the Star Trek movie......"Khan"!!!!!!!!!!


    I did my Shoobie Doobie with the DMT XX, then a worn DMT C, and I finished up with some wet sandpaper, and took it to 1000k, It has a sparkly glass like surface...
    Awesome Stone, That and the Ozuku....I use mine with Nagura up to Koma, and finish with Tomonagura.

    Does the circular figuring somehow increase the stones finishing power, or is it just Aesthetically pleasing to the eye....Or is it a "Zen" thing....

    It seems like a lot of the info in this thread would be beneficial in a separate thread specifically on the processes so it would be easier to find for someone who just got their first japanese stone.

    Very nice stone, I'm sure that you'll enjoy it.
