Thread: Jnat Hone ID

Put the trigger on this one, the price is very good, so took my chance.

I was drawn to the colour, I am not a Jnat person. My knowledge is limited.

I being wanting on for a while, had a look here and there but the price were above my means.

Seller told me the original ower had it since the 1930s. This looks like a Nakayama xxxxxxxx xxxxxxx

Jnat club member what do you think?

Many thanks
George

Looks like Nakayama Kiita to me.

I just do not understand how one can tell the mine of origin just by looking at a stone?
There are kiita stones that come from other mines too..

I will call it Nakayama Baby Jesus, I'm sure it will put the fear of God into my razor.

Let us know how it goes, I am sure you will have questions.

Do you think I will need a slurry stone? if so which one?

Possibly, but it is your stone you need to try it and figure out what works with it.
I do not even know how hard it is, it may very well be just a prepolisher.
