Strong cutting speed, good feedback for a harder stone and silky mud produced from the stone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI found it best suited for edge sharpening producing an exceptionally fine toothy edge on kitchen knives, single bevel like Yanagiba being the best as well as Japanese woodworking tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing the stone I found starting with a surface from a 600 atoma worked best, washing away any mud made from atoma,  a little water to start sharpening produced a fine dark slurry. This worked best for both edge or bevel sharpening. \u003cbr\u003eAs well using a fine nagura also worked very nicely with this stone, Nagura or other finer stone \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA stone best suited for experienced users with great potential for very fine sharpening.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Komon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49822109860082,"sku":"260701-OZUKUUSU","price":55000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/4956\/7218\/files\/260701-OZUKUUSU-2.jpg?v=1784778372","url":"https:\/\/komonjapan.com\/products\/260701-ozukuusu","provider":"Komon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
