They all wary, but they usually give the same charteristic look to the edge. Finding a really good one is not that easy. This particular jnat will not give me that super sharp edge as one of my harder stones. It is fine enough, but it is really fast, and a pleasure to work with. It also works well with just water for finishing. It probably has more potential, the image from the previous post is from finishing on light slurry. I have a harder and finer jnat, but this sees less use.Keep in mind that results with a Jnat vary wildly, depending on the slurry and the nagura used to raise it. Jnat experts are welcome to refute, if their experience says otherwise. I only own one and it is the only one I have ever owned.
Everytime I try to understand someting I usually end with more questions then I started with.
I took the 12k Naniwa edge to Crox on balsa, and 0.125 CBN on hard backed leather. I only did about 15 strokes on each. I was expecting the apex to be allot more convexed then it was. The Naniwa edge was OK, but now the edge is definitely sharper.
