Hi All,
I do not feel qualified to post here as I have absolutely no idea what jnat I have.
I also have no idea what all the terms for them mean - although I'm sure I'll learn some of them eventually.
I thought I would post photos of my (one and only) jnat for comment/opinions.
It seems to be a fairly soft stone and the slurry smells like mud.
I have tried it on a couple of razors (after the 8k) and gotten quite good shaves from them.
I start with a fairly thick slurry and gradually dilute it to water(using pigtail strokes) then rinse the hone off and make a lighter slurry and dilute it to water as well.
I don't have a nagura stone so I've been using the slurry stone off my PHIG to make the slurry.
You may think that I'm a Philistine for doing it this way, however, if you do, I beg your forgiveness - I just don't know any better.
Here are the photos - with slurry and after lapping (dry).
A very merry Christmas to all and the best of New Years as well.
GeoffHang on and enjoy the ride...

I really didn't need a new jnat, but Maksim had one that I really liked, so I bought it. It arrived tonight in the rainy weather. DHL called me this morning and told me that he knew that I would want my package, so he bagged it and left it on my doorstep. I'm glad I didn't have to wait until tomorrow. The stone is beautiful. I haven't had a chance to try it out, but it is harder than my other one.

I also picked up another jnat from the Bay. I had bought several nice stones from this seller, so I trusted his description and assessment of the stone. It looked very nice. It is hard, but it a little rougher than my JNS stones. It does cut fast and is a nice size.

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