    Beautiful stone. I have one. I believe that the jnat hardness matters less for Western blades but is more critical to kamisori

    I bring my solitary J-nat to the thread, a Nakayama Asagi that I got from a friend and fellow SRP member some months back. Puts a superb finished edge on an already shave ready razor. Using his photos to me because I'm too lazy to take new ones and couldn't do better anyhow. The stone is 4" at the widest point and 6" at the longest Name:  Nakayama2.jpg

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Finally got time to take pics of some more stones:
    #1 A big botan nagura
    #2 my go to Shobudani Asagi prepolisher
    #3 Unknown ~3k stone, very nice on kamisoris, too slow for anything else.
    #4 Aizu- this one is superb stone 1-3k range, very fast cutter
    #5 Aizu, I use the back as lapping plate for the softer natural, the stone is very hard for such low grit
    #6 Hideriyama - ~6k range , can be used as intermediate before a prepolisher
    #7 Yaginoshima Asagi
    #8,9 -Atagoyama Kiita , a true #24 size stone, which is my finest prepolisher, the black lines are not cracks.
