Takashima Karasu
I haven't put a razor to it yet but I like what I see and feel.

A beautiful stone!
I look forward to hearing your thoughts on how it performs.
Are you seeing it as a possible finisher, and are you planning any Nagura progressions on it?Bjoernar
Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

It was accurately rated by the seller as LV 4-5 but I think it is closer to 5, it is definitely harder than my Namazu (LV 4) and softer than my Ozuku Mizo Asagi (LV 5+.)
I will be using it as a finisher and with Nagura, I tested all my Nagura on it and they all slurried well. I thought that a Nakayama Tomo I have would be too hard but it slurried well.Last edited by Bayamontate; 09-11-2012 at 01:21 AM.
