I get great results off my Nakayama Asagi with just water. ( I do have matching slurries, or Tomonagura) As previously mentioned, The razor is shave ready. The J nat just takes it to another level. I also agree that you should stick with one stone for a while and get to know it...The kiita is a good choice..or the Maruka....I'd get your razor shave ready, then try the Kiita again, Try it without a slurry, see how it does....
