INTERPRETATION OF THE STONE

This Atago Koppa was a very interesting find, both very fine with very strong cutting speed. 
Often I don’t find koppa of such high quality but this was an exception. 

Having a very smooth, fine, even cutting experience, sharpening both single bevel knives as well as Japanese woodworking tools was easy. 

I really liked this stone for edge sharpening both single and double bevel knives, the edge was was very fine but had a nice crispy feeling. 

Best set up using a 600 grit atoma to dress the surface washing of all mud, then using little water to start a very dark almost black slurry  created from pressure on the soft iron.

RECOMMENDED USE FOR :

Best suited for edge sharpening, strait razors, Japanese woodworking tools, kamisori and single bevel iron clad kitchen knives .
