Earlier this month tc challenged anyone to beat a Naniwa ss 12k edge with a Japanese natural stone. I gladly accepted his challenge, and I believe steve56 did as well. His razor arrived to me the other day and it's now time to put my money where my mouth is. First problem, which stone to use! I think I'll go with my trusty lime kiita(second from the left), the finest stone I own and see how he likes that.

The razor is a manaslu m500. One I've never tried, but am growing very attached to. I need to get it honed and in the mail before I decide I want it!
