Two Oozuku (Pic Heavy)

[BRuhling]

I recently got a new Oozuku Assagi from Maksim at JapaneseNaturalStones. I've used it a few times in conjunction with my new nagura. I've really gotten great edges. Of course, in true HAD fashion, the stone you have is never good enough. Thus, I received today my second Oozuku. This one comes from Morihei in Tokyo. It is a Oozuku Suita (no su). I haven't tried it out yet, but thought I'd share a bit of stone pr0n with all of the rock hounds...

Just trying to do my part to assist you, Henry!

Dammit. That is just cruel.

If it makes you feel any better, Henry, I'm only going to end up keeping one of them. The other will probably find its way to the B/S/T...

Great stones Bill . Fortunately, I have gotten my HAD under control.

I just got a very similar asagi from Maxim. Haven't played around with it much yet, but really liking it so far. Let us know how the suita performs. Great looking stones!!

I've heard great things about Ozuku (Oozuku?) stones. I'll have to try them out.

Ive got an oozuku and thats finer than my nakayama asagi but much slower and not as easy to work with as the nakayama
