Take 2 of JNAT test #4 of 4 - this time using Mikawa Mejiro Nagura that a generous member gave me for slurry. Union Spike #3 with fresh Nakayama #2 edge, Semogue Torga C5 Mistura, Tabac with tallow, and homemade lemon-lime aftershave splash.

Nice edge! The Mejiro slurry removed some light scratches from the edge and provided comfortable feedback when honing.

A broken in Semogue Mistura is pretty darn nice thing!
