Not the best stone but it definitely produces some great surfaces. I dug out parts of it to make some finger stone and the finish is really nice, just kinda have to avoid the rustlines. Got this stone in the early stages of Jnat experience, have better stones subbing it out now. I asked myself...

This piece of uchi I recently picked up is absolutely a killer in Kasumi finishes, it gives that glossy nebulous finish like most Uchis have, but cleaner and more consistent. I like how it has both convex side and a flat side which took half an hour of flattening to get. The convex of it really...
