Good morning,
I wanted to see if anyone here was familiar with or has used a Japanese natural water stone. In particular, I am looking at buying an Okuda Suita and/or a Nakayama Akapin Tomae. I have synthetic Shapton Kuromaku stones in 1, 5, 8, and 12k at the moment, and the vendor I am in contact with recommended a natural stone for the final polish after the 12k.
Just wanted to see if anyone here had experience with Japanese naturals and their use as final polishing stones after synthetics.
Thanks,
Lee
