A Norton 4/8 might cost a bit more than a barber's hone, but you will get a ton more use out of it. Search on JANorton for more info.

I agree with Speedster, my first was a 4/8 and I fixed my razor that I had dulled with bad stropping.
Arise, awake, and learn by approaching the exalted ones,
for that path is sharp as a razor’s edge, impassable,
and hard to go by, say the wise. Katha Upanishad – 1.3.14

barber hone, norton 4/8, naniwa 3/8, J.A. Henckels 3/8. All would be good stones to start with, and are less than $90 for two stones, and some barber hones can be had fairly cheap as well.
Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.
