Super hard, super fine Ozuku Mizu with dense Goma. In affordable San size. extremely high performance stone for razors. Slower cutting and excellent platform for Mikawa nagura. Feedback is exceedingly clear and clean with the undeflying bumpy feel when honing on coarse nagura. Capable of extreme light saber like edges with extended work. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a super high performance, super hard stone at a fraction of the cost of a full sized bench stone. Amazing structure and density which aids in the clarity of nagura feedback. Nagura slurry is long lived and refinement takes time, patience, consistency and intuition. A great for someone passionate about nagura progressions or learning as it provides a clear representation of the nagura.
