Great, so that would rule out using an combostone and cut that.
I'll talk to Howard about the coticule rod.
The smaller stones you used was like 6x2 combo?, I'm thinking to buy one that I can take a long, but debating witch size on that, 4x2 looks like to small to hold, but 6x2 looks better, I guess.
Yes, I personally would not go with a combo for such a narrow stone because of strength issues and I think that Howard will tell you the same. The smaller combo stone that I used was a 6X2; it's a classic size for barber hones. I would not want to use a 4X2 because I like the extra length. If you want to save money I would recommend going narrower not shorter, but that is just my personal preference.
