Slate and Shell Go Stones - Sample Pack - Size 36 Biconvex

Description: “This is a sample pack of our size 36 slate and shell Go stones, which are among the highest quality Go stones available. It contains three black stones and three white stones. Size 36 refers to the thickness of the stone (in this case 10.4 mm or 0.41 inches). The additional thickness and weight of these stones gives them a pleasant feeling in your hand and produces a sharp and satisfying snapping sound when the stones are played.” - GoGameGuru

Go Bowls and Stones Carrying Bag

Overall Rating: 8 / 10 Ponnuki

Important Notice

This review is based on the bag that I received two years ago. Since then, YMImports has upgraded the carrying bag to also include bowl straps as well. With that new feature, the bag’s review would escalate to a 9 or 10 Ponnuki status.

Highlights

• Best carrying bag for go stones and bowls that I’ve seen on the market.
• The bag is made of durable material that hasn’t shown signs of ripping.
• The handles are a little more fragile, so be a little more careful relying on those.

Product Details

• Travel vinyl bag with two handles and a single zipper for the top.
• Fits standard Go bowls up to 5’’ wide and 4’’ high
