    Default Choosing a tomonagura for a Japanese natural hone

    I would like to start using a Japanese natural with a tomonagura.
    I have a Nkayama that I got many years ago without a tomonagura.

    Can I simply buy a small similar Nakayama Koppa to use as a tomonagura or would I be better off buying a hone that comes with the tomonagura it has been used with successfully by an old barber or an experienced user of Japanese naturals?

    I have been eying this one. The way its seller describes it it is very similar to what I have. Stamps (I know, limited value) and colours are very similar to my large stone.
