Unit price perAbout the Ohira
This stone is a very fine, moderate hardness finishing stone around ~5000 grit. Simply splash and go, work up a slurry initially with firm pressure, then let the mud do the rest.
Ohira is a little softer natural stone used to make the traditional kasumi finish that gives the cladding a cloudy, misty look. The stone produces slurry quickly and leaves an even finish on blades from laminated steels, creating visible contrast. It is very simple to use and its advantage is that it leaves very visible traces of previous sharpening on the blade, revealing all irregularities and low spots, in turn telling us which areas of the blade we should hone in on.
All natural stone sales are final, we try to provide the best possible representation of the stone via our images.
