My Newest J-nat that I picked up the other day.
A rare Ozuku Suita (without su).
So far so good after two razors.

Allow me to present my third Jnat. It is an Oozuku Sunashie Suiita
I am told by the seller that Suiita is the fastest cutting Jnat. I am also told that this particular stone was cut from the lowest possible strata and is therefore a somewhat rare stone. This stone is judged to be in the 15k to 18k range and is designated as a pre-polisher. So far, I find that to be a fairly accurate assessment.

15-18K is plenty of sharp. I wonder how the seller
measured what finess it has.

I can easily shave off the Suiita but my Nakayama Maruichi definitely improves the Suiita edge. I have determined that the Suiita is in between the Naniwa 12k and the Nakayama
