A kan nested in it's wooden base, dai. Nice transition from yellow to grey. Quick test on a finished razor with a tomo worked well. More testing to come but at least I can tell besides the looks it's a perfect finisher.

No I personally like it. A bit of uniqueness and individuality. Not just the same thing someone else has.Does it annoy anyone else that Jnats are delivered in odd shapes and sizes? Most other stones are cut into nice rectangles with flat bottoms. Why is it that Jnats are so often left unfinished?
The pictures show it slightly wet

The stone that you now own is one of the most amazing stones I ever sold. Strikingly beautiful it is crazy fast cutting. With a #600 Atoma plate generated slurry I was able to remove all of the 1,000 King grit scratches in 10 strokes on a Tim Zowada carbon steel razor. I did this over and over to prove to myself what was really happening. You are a fortunate man.
