Worth buying this waterstone?

[stinger]

I found this combianation waterstone on ebay LINK and i was just wondering if it would be worthwhile getting it as a starter stone, i have a couple of knives both for bushcraft and cooking that i would like to keep "razor sharp". Currently working to a budget so i don't really want to be going out and spending £100 on a full set and thought this would be a good way to start and thought i would get the opinion of the guys here.

Go for it, I use exactly the same type.

Just make sure you get a Nagura stone to use in conjunction with the 6000 grit side
