Is that a deep stratum or a hoard stone from Alex?Well over a month later, number 71 arrived safe and sound. View attachment 1141259
Thanks, it's from the hoard. I got a chance to mess with it a bit last night and this morning. It's the hardest hoard stone that I've had so far. Even honing knives with wide bevels doesn't kick up any slurry that I can see. It has decent speed on water only, but with slurry it melts steel.Is that a deep stratum or a hoard stone from Alex?
Nice dark kawa and color!
Oh my, that is gorgeous! I've been wanting a karasu for a bit but I haven't found the right stone yet.
That may be the most beautiful karasu I have ever laid eyes on.
Great, now I just want one more.
