Hitohira Picked Mizukihara Uchigumori Natural Stone (No.0005)

A stunning little Uchi! This stone will create a very even almost scratch free kasumi finish quickly. It hides a lot of scratches the bevel so perfect to create a quick finish. It’s just hard enough to use for edge work. There are some small inclusions on the top surface which can be dug out with a small chisel or they can be ignored and the area can be avoided. Detailed SpecBrand: Hitohira ひとひら Product Type: Natural Stone Mine: Mizukihara Producing Area: Kyoto/ Japan Layer: Uchigumori Recommended Usage: Kitchen Knife (Edge), Kitchen Knfie (Bevel),Chisel, Plane, Hagane Polish, Kasumi Finish with Dorodashi Hardness (5 = Very Hard) : 3 Grain Scale (5 = Very Fine) : 3.7 Sharpening Speed (5 = Very Fast) : 4.7 Soaking Requirement: Not required Size: 165 x 60 x 24mm Weight: 527g Revied by Naoki Tsuda Update: June 7, 2023
