INTERPRETATION OF THE STONE

This Ohira is a very easy stone to use with a very smooth feel across the entire stone. 

On the medium soft side in the 4k-6k grit range it’s perfect for wide bevel or single bevel knife sharpening/polishing. Can be used as a finishing stone, or pre finishing. 

I’ve tested this stone with normal water amounts but I found best results came from using less water keeping the stone a bit dryer in the areas not being used. This produced a dark thick mud that aided in cutting and polishing performance. This gave a very nice contrast and Kasumi finish.

An excellent stone for those wanting to get into Japanese natural stones or those looking for a very easy and forgiving stone.

RECOMMENDED USE FOR :

Best suited for kitchen knives, single and double bevel iron clad, carbon steel, Kasumi finishing and edge sharpening.
