Authentic Japanese Natural Whetstone from Ōhira, Shohonyama, Kyoto
An exceptionally rare, jumbo-sized Renge Suita from the legendary Ōhira mine, Shohonyama, Kyoto. This Tokkyūhin (Special Grade) Kuradashi (direct warehouse release) stone features a stunning yet subtle renge (lotus blossom) pattern within a remarkably clean, suji-free surface, and bears the stamp of Ishihara Toishi, a respected Kyoto whetstone dealer. Medium-hard, offering swift cutting response, strong polishing power, and smooth, buttery feedback, with a razor-sharp edge and beautiful kasumi finish. Great for premium kitchen knives, chisels, and razors.
