#703 Aiiwatani Asagi Goma Easy Kasumi LV 3-3.5 Hardness LV 3.5-3.5+ Fineness 536 Grams
Easy self slurrying AIiwatani with a easy crisp sizzley feel, it generates mud easily and cuts medium fast, the fine milky kasumi finish can be graded a bit finer by working drying mud with very little pressure but can get streaky if done dry too hard. For a stone of this weight it's very easy to use as it is nice and long with a good amount of face.
Sides are not sealed
180x60x20mm 536 grams
Aiiwatani: A ‘Higashi-Mono’ (Eastern Mine) whetstone that is close in proximity to Takashima and Wakasa, two mines known for their high density stones. Aiiwatani are great shiage-toishi(fine stones) when you are looking for a refined edge. Typically more mellow in cutting action, but this can lead to a cleaner polish.
Asagi: This aesthetic term refers to the general color of the stone. Typically, Asagi stones are grey, light blue, greyish-blue/green, and tan. They are usually quite clean stones that are on the harder side. However, softer Asagi stones are great for knife polishing.
Goma: This aesthetic quality looks like tiny black dots, or little sesame seeds in the stone. This quality typically translates to having a fast cutting speed.
Nashiji:
Meaning ‘pear-skin’, this aesthetic quality looks like tiny brown/pale dots on the stone. This quality can look similar to Su-holes on Suita stones as well as be a quality on Suita.
