I lap my tomos on one side and I clean up one corner and round it. I use that for my slurries. You can also use a round carbide hacksaw blade or if its soft enough a round file.

I use the edge of a DMT to put grooves in my tomo's to reduce the tendency to "stick" to the stone. I do not, however, groove any of my mikawa nagura.

Of my Jnats, this is my favorite!: A Nakayama Maruichi Kitta Kan. A very hard and fine stone capable of a mirror or near to mirror finish with the correct slurry. It's 165 x 110 x 25mm. Sometimes you just like a stone....this is my "huckleberry"!!
Best Regards,
Howard :)

Nakayama asagi from japan and nakayama asagi and kiita tomos. Kiita has nice feel to it, alhthough the asagi tomo felt better on the stone, test shave was excellent. Faster than my nakayama asagi mizu.
Great stones Bill!
New little nakayama, botan, mejiro and tenjou nagura. These shipped from Maksim on Monday and got here today. That's insane.
I'll post a pic of my other jnat stuff later :)
