    As far as I know lines are typical for Oohira, there also could be specimens with no lines at all, but I can;t remember seeing one.

    I guess that you know that these are suita strata stones, no big deal here though. They should kick up a creamy slurry on their own or a diamond DMT card will make one too. If you use these stones for final polishing and you feel some gritty particles trapped in the stone you can just lap the stone lightly and the grit will most likely be rinsed away. The Ohira mine is known for their beautiful suita stones, but more so in the sword world for their uchigumori strata stone. alx

    I use Uchigomori suita as a finisher.
