Brooksie967 · Sep 9, 2014

Ordered these direct from stores in Japan, very excited!

First up is a Narutaki that displays the Shohonyama stamp. 200x75x14mm

Next up is a Shobudani Iromono aka Shobu aka Shoboudani aka Syoubutani depending on where you find them that is 205x77x35mm.

AND last but not least a Narutaki namito that is 200x75x30mm ish.

As usual if anyone can chime in with meanings of the stamps please do! One particular I am curious about is the 一本撰 "ipponsen" stamp that should mean 'hand selected' or 'high' grade or 'highest grade' that seems to pop up pretty frequently.

Sebastian, very much so lol. I couldn't pass these stones by! This will bring my collection to around 10 I think but as these are full size might replace some of my other stones!

With all those bricks, you will soon have enough to make that backyard oven.

Ipponsuguri means best choosen quality.

Come on brooksy, size doesn`t matter, your girl didn`t tell you so far?

Sam, never!

One thing about the Narutaki that threw me for a loupe is the EP stamp. I thought those were only on Maruichi stones?

Sweet looking stones brother. Love the orange brown one. Let us know how they test.

njtnjt · Sep 9, 2014

LOL, it is a constant battle between the two. This purchase SHOULD satisfy my requirements for all knives/tools/razors though!

Very nice sir!

Brooksie967 · Sep 9, 2014

Thanks! They are all coming EMS so shouldn't take too long. I've grown fond of testing stones on knives; it's easier to judge what its capable of at the naked eye level as well as for speed.

Steve56 · Sep 9, 2014

Excellent Jeremy, I'm excited to hear how they work out.

Cheers, Steve
