Photos are current. This Ohira Tomae is one of the most popular natural finishing stones on our site. We get these stones from the Imanishi stone company in Kyoto and Mr. Imanishi evaluates these stones and grades them before putting his stamp on them. This stone is fine with an approximate grit rating of about 8-10K. This one will last a long time and is very thick. Cuts fast and have a nice hard feel to it. Leaves a great finish. Size is 205mm x 77mm x 43mm. Mr. Imanishi grades this stone as High Quality and it was mined in the early 1970s. It's been in his basement ever since. This stone weighs 1.71kg.

This is my first JNAT. It's a fantastic stone and I was pleasantly surprised. It's buttery smooth yet hard, very fast, and has a lot of reach. I'll be going straight to the Ohira Tomae from a Naniwa Pro 1000. I have no doubt it'll be a fantastic finisher for years to come.

Outstanding!, June 29, 2017 Ozuku Natural Stone, March 27, 2017Posted By: Zul - verified customer
I have no chance to try it yet but one look at it I know and can feel that it's an excellent stone. Much better than all the stone sthat I have. The best part of it is that the shipping is very fast. I got it in less than a week! So no chance to try since it arrived earlier than expected. Once used I'll give more comments.
