Thanked: 1587I hope they do it for you, but I doubt they'll do more than offer to cut one down for you (probably at a cost). I cannot imagine their market is huge anyway, and that within it straight razor users are a very small subset, and those that want a barber hone - sized stone would be an even smaller subset still. It just wouldn't be worth the time and trouble for them to manufacture a smaller size. Perhaps I'm wrong (and I hope for you I am) but ...
I have a feeling Shooter's suggestion will probably be the best and cheapest solution.

Or you can just buy an old barbers hone on eBay :-)

If you don't stand for something you'll fall for anything.

Why the first two and not the finest 0.5 micron stone? In any case, if anyone buys one and wants to split it, count me in.
