Like Birnardo said to really benefit from this stone your straight has to be shave ready before it touches it.
Gx2japan-messer-shop.de sell the gokumyo line as well but its still cheaper to buy from toolsfromjapan.

I always mess up where I got my Suehiros in Europe.
Luckily you are there to save me every time
