Hello George,

As I understand it, Finkat is the Japanese manufacturer's name and it is
marketed in the U.S. Under the Eagle brand name. It is available from the
manufacturer in only bulk quantities, so Craft Supplies is a good place to
get smaller amounts if you are a hobby turner. I have been using and making
a living with Finkat (Eagle) papers for almost eleven years now... They are
an excellent value, cut well and have a sterated coating to reduce clogging
of the face. They have been my primary production abrasive paper due to
their superior performance. Highly recommended! Good luck to you and best
wishes in all of your woodturning endeavours!
