Recently my brother has dropped my DC4 on the ceramic side and a chunk is missing, and you can't glue it as it will be uneven and will protrude taking chunks out of the mora clipper edge. So I was wondering if these are good as a replacement.

Will I need a nagura stone with this?

How big is the chunk? This should not be a replacment for the DC4, it is a field stone. Those water stones are bench stones and should be kept at home or in more permanent base camp, they are really to bulky to be used in the field. These will really keep your blade sharp. Field stones are really just to keep it 'topped up' and shouldnt really be used for sharpening while at your home.
Hope this helps, Robb

Well I was thinking, yes I know the DC4 is a carrying stone but I thought I could keep one of stones on me. instead of both of them.
