Mizukihara Uchigumori Jito Koppa Japanese Whetstone

This exceptional Japanese whetstone was selected by us and imported directly from Japan, thoroughly tested and coated with cashew lacquer on sides and back to protect the stone for long term use. 
It measures 110 mm (4.33 inches) long × 90 mm (3.54 inches) wide × 18 mm (0.71 inches) tall, and weighs 483 g (1.06 pounds).

Hardness: 4.3
A very hard Uchigumori Jito Koppa. This might be the hardest of the Uchigumori we received recently. This stone is particularly hard and fine for Uchigumori and will serve well as a razor final finisher. A perfect shape for razor finishing, this stone can used on both sides as a natural combination stone with some additional back side lapping. Being very hard, this stone is a little more mild in cutting strength and will serve best as a pre finisher or final finisher for razors. To be used as such, the medium grit work must be done properly.
