This is unique in the Tanba area which is known primarily for softer, less fine stones in general when compared to Eastern mines. Yaginoshima stones are revered and held in high regard along the famous eastern yamashiro Area mines. Yaginoshima Karasu are extremely rare to find these days and this large piece shows amazing, flowing Karasu patterns which flow nicely. This is a unique stone which is very smooth and easy going. Not at all super hard and glassy, more smooth and creamy with free flowing grit. This is a faster Karasu stone which is perfect for pre finishing to finishing of razors. Can also be used for tools and knives highly effectively making it extremely versatile in application. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffith Shaving Goods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67962735788126,"sku":"0298","price":475.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0778\/2905\/files\/IMG_5145_1d4b9cdf-9f8d-4861-86e3-fc49f413dc99.jpg?v=1794272486","url":"https:\/\/www.griffithshavinggoods.com\/fr\/products\/yaginoshima-karasu-japanese-natural-finishing-whetstone-2","provider":"Griffith Shaving Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
