    Cool My one and only

    This one is a Nakayama Midori Nashiji. possibly from the Tomae Stratum for all you J-HAD freaks that might mean stuff, for me it means I like the stone, after I tried it out...

    Size is just under 8 inchs long x just over 2 3/4 inches wide

    I use it only for finishing, I have used it with a couple of different Nagura but honestly the best results for me come with using it with it's own slurry generated by using a DMT 325 and letting that go to almost dry as I hone...

    That is a great looking stone and if I am not mistaken it is a tomae strata stone and I am sure it is an old stock asagi with that fine complex color scheme leading to a vague green tint on a grey overcast. Here is a photo that shows some variation in the color group.

    Default A couple of Chunky J-nats

    For those of you who know me, it would be no surprise that I have a few stones laying around my hotel room. Here are two chunks that fell into my lap. Alx p.s. Please visit my blog at TheJapanBlade with a new post about the Umegahata region of Kyoto.

    my latest one, Nakayama with kamisori stamp, a very nice asagi with kan , with yellow/blue colors. When whet it looks green.
    In process of getting to know it right now.

    On the left, my Shoubudani Sunashi Suita. On the right a borrowed Nakayama Sunashi Suita.
