On soft cladding such as Damascus and folded wrought iron I found it brought nice separation in the cladding layers and fine detail in standard carbon cladding like you may find on knives from Sakai. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTested on Tamahagane Honyaki, Genkai white 1 Honyaki, standard soft sanmai white 1 from Sakai, nantetsu and Kato sanmai. The stone performed well across all steel but i felt pairs well with single and double bevel carbon clad knives, wrought iron and similar iron. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBest used with little water for both polishing and edge sharpening. I tend to start most of my stones with a surface texture from a worn 600 grit atoma. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOver all a very versatile stone for both polishing and edge sharpening. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Komon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50120564506866,"sku":"260901-OHIRATOMAE2","price":80000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/4956\/7218\/files\/260901-OHIRATOMAE2.jpg?v=1789823690","url":"https:\/\/komonjapan.com\/products\/260901-ohiratomae2","provider":"Komon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
