Not much to say here – other than this is one lovely piece of Jnat.

It’s a goldilocks stone – juuuusssssst the right size, shape, weight, hardness, etc. Because the stamps are intact, and I’d like to leave it that way for now – I was only able to run a razor over this one briefly in the middle. Even so – the feedback was sublime, velvety and smooth. The polish on the blade was significant – this is a very fine stone. 

It’s hard, but not very hard. It’s hard enough to finish a razor’s edge to a very fine degree and it’s easy enough to work with for anyone. 

Approx. Dimensions: 6.0 x 3.3 x 1.3” / 152 x 84 x 33 mm 

Weight: 40 oz / 1133 g
