    Default fresh from japan... with love...

    got a couple photo msg's tonight with the latest arrival...... i haven't touched or seen this in person yet but it measures 5.5x3.5x1.25 and i was informed that you cannot feel the cracks...

    when i get home i will give it a quickie lap and polish and hone something really quick on it to see how it does.... it is supposed to be a level5 but that remains to be seen....




    a nice walk in the woods helps me relax and relieves tension....

    the fact i'm dragging a shovel and a body should be irrelevant...

    nope...

    i guess they are manganese lines... i can feel a difference when passing over them but not in a bad way... just a slight textural change...

    he is a seller on ebay... apparently in the past his grading of stones has been shakey...

    but both of my stones from him have been what i wanted when i bought them... his shipping sucks tho.... he takes his time putting it in the mail....

    but i will buy from him again....
