Investing in this Vintage Narutaki Tomae has been a rewarding travel into a world of knowledge and culture. This was my first time buying a natural stone and with the help from Hitohira I have found what I was looking for and jump at it without hesitations. The stone exceeds any expectations I had about natural stones. It builds up slurry easily and the knife glide on it with remarkable ease, effortlessly and, in no time, the beauty and contrast between the Hagane and Jigane are revealed with a near mirror finish to my amaze. The description from Mr. Fonseca was spot on and Mr. Hokuto from Hitohira provided me with an astonishing service and availability. Answering all my questions and providing the adequate recommendations in a timely matter. I’ll gladly do business with them soon or seek expert advises on any interrogations I could have knowing they would wisely reply to them. A pleasure! D.Rollin
