Thread: Kyoto Natural Hones-Hand selected by Eastern Smooth

Gentlemen,

I'm happy to say, I was able to pick up a couple of excellent razor hones on my recent trip to Kyoto, including a gorgeous Nakayama Maruka, and am offering them now on my page:

Eastern Smooth: The Store

Right now there is one Shoubudani Aisa and one Nakayama Maruka Namito. Both of these stones were hand selected by myself, after hours of test-honing at a few hone dealers in Kyoto.

Supplies are very limited; I can only test and afford so many hones, and I can only get to Kyoto so often, so I have no idea when I will be able to put up more hones.

In addition, if you have been considering an Iwasaki 2-chou-gake, now is the time--if you purchase a hone and razor set you will save 5000 JPY, just over US$60, off the pair.

If you only want the Iwasaki razor, of course, those are still available at 40,000 JPY apiece. Please check here for details.

As always, all prices include worldwide EMS shipping.

Take a look, and thanks for your attention.

**UPDATE** I was told that the checkout page was appearing in Japanese for some people, oddly enough. This hasn't been a problem before but I think I have solved it. Everything should be in English now. If you have any problems, please do let me know.

Best,
Jim
