    My latest acquisition , a beautiful and very big Ohira Renge Suita, from Maksim @ JNS.
    The stone has the purple renge but also a spot with black renge, very unique and beautiful. Already lacquered the sides and back.

    Most of my tomonagura stones came from two jnats that I cut up

    I purchased a heap really really cheap and found two were no good for sharpening due to su and flakey layers.

    They do work wonders for tomonagura stones though

    Gorgeous stone! If you've had time to play with it, how does it work on razors? Prepolisher, finisher, fast, slow, etc?

    This is a very fast prepolisher, it finishes ~10k level.

    Rich yes, but look those are very very good stones at high demand in Japan, when opportunity presents to get one it should not be missed.
