Nice stone by the way..

Alex Gilmore stopped by this weekend on his travels, left me 4 stones to test including this one, a beautiful full bench hunk of hand-sawn, snow white sunashi suita. Not much else to be said except it's hard, fine, and very pretty!

Cheers, Steve

I was just at Alex's place. I believe I got to behold that stone, it really is amazing how white it is! Congrats!

Thanks dshaves, no congrats necessary, it isn't mine and will go back when I'm done testing it out, you know maybe 2-3 years

It also seems to be sunashi, no su. You're absolutely right about the whiteness, it kind of looks like a 1.5" thick Naniwa Snow White.

Cheers, Steve

All new replies go to the last page because posts are in chronological order. Otherwise most people wouldn't see them. It's a feature not a bug!

And thank you!

Cheers, Steve

2-3 years sound like a reasonable and thorough amount of time for testing Hope it performs as amazing as it looks.

I agree when he handed that stone to me I was looking at the surface and couldn't believe that it was a jnat. In the midst of all of his other stones it really stood out!
