Thanked: 2591Tamahagane is special because it allows you to make a razor at very high hardness with no chipping issues. It takes time to hone correctly but not extraordinarily long time.
I have honed two Western Tamahagane Iwasakis so far and I was more than impressed with the steel. This is really one of those things that one has to try to fully appreciate it.Stefan
