    there is no new ones made so far.
    you can pick up one from classified or ebay.
    yes there is differences among barber hones and rest of the hones.
    Barber hones usually fast cutter and meant to refresh the edge mostly. Regular hones(naniwa etc) are hones you put final edge(we are talking high grit stones)
    hope this helps

    Well thanks for the advice. Not counting price, are there any differences between honing with a barber hone or a naniwa? And where would I pick up a barber hone? Are there new ones being made, or is it a vintage thing?
