There will be a small layer of Merganser in the stone, mixed with a layer of Tomae and Shikitomae. The finish is close to Hondo-mae, the texture is good and glides well, making it easy to use. As it is a grinding stone made of rough stone, the price is low for the quality.
It is stuck on an old rack. It's a high quality grinding stone, so I think it will pay for itself, even if you put in a little effort. This grinding stone is gentle on the blade, so it can be used to finish razors, knives and chisels. At this time of year, be sure to use warm water at around 40 degrees Celsius for best results. I find that using cold water would make it difficult to get the best performance out of this grinding stone.
If you are a beginner looking for a high quality sharpening stone at a low price, we highly recommend this sharpening stone.
