Masahiro Arato 18cm L x 17mm T Coarse Grit 600 waterstone. My second sharpening stone, bought from JCK.
Same size as the 1500x Masahiro and this stone is very soft and creates alot of mud (swarf) when sharpening. Very soft and according to some more comfortable to use by beginners, creates a rather smooth finish for a 600 stone because it's so soft it creates a hack of mud.
I had issues with the rubber feet; not bad a stone but expensive for it size and sharpening qualities.
Used for less than 5 knives, sold to someone else in it’s fairly new state.
