    Thanks for the response guys,

    it must indeed be my tomo nagura or diamond plate.
    My stones are hard and so are my tomos mostly, my dfiamond plate is 1200, maybe I should try a 600 instead.

    I tried to create slurry from a Coticule stone and it created slurry fine without any loose grit sort of speak. The Coticule is noticeably softer than any of my tomos though, so there might lie a solution there.

    Has anyone tried shaving off of worked and thinned Coticule slurry on a hard / very fine Jnat?
    I wonder of I could use my Coticule slurry stone as some sort of pre-finishing step, results look good under the microscope, I will see how it shaves first.

    Never tried Coticule slurry as there are much better options.
    A hard tomo on hard stone should not create chunks. Typically a super hard base stone would have a slightly less hard Tomo and vice versa, but there are no rules. It has to do with grit and fineness as well.
    When trying the hard Tomo can you tell what stone is giving up the most?
    That will tell you which is harder.
    I would avoid Diamond slurry for now, using a 600 over a 1200 will not help at all.
    Tathra11 and PaulFLUS like this.

    Oh yeah. He's doing rock climbing stuff now. But if you can get him to this thread id say he has all the correct answers. Not that what has been said is wrong. Ive bought Jnats from him and learned them. But in the end I found the Synthetic stones more to my liking.

    Oops. That's Victor thats rock climbing.
    Ha! Just reading this thinking 'I'll have to get in touch with Steve, I didn't know that he was into climbing too.'
