check out the colors on the axe head picture on the Right side of the page, the colors look similar.

You guys having fun

Well fun is all that is left for us, cause you got this wonderful hone! :)

Sham, better don't hit it.
I remember that they do not break or chip easily cause we were playing with flints as kids
but it would be a real pity if it would chip at the wrong spot..
Better description of that smell is not sulfur, its firecracker rather.

Sigh...now i want to take my razor up into the Cascade mountains here and try it on all the native rocks, until i find a special one that none of you guys have, then have it cut into a hone. :idea:
Im still somewhat suspicious that it might be yellow jasper...since jasper has been used for both, hones and knapping arrowheads. Sigh...maybe i should let it go...let it go Mac. lol

JESUS WEPT CAN YOU PEOPLE STOP???? :rant:

WTF man? :aargh:

I can't even read it and I want to buy something :cry:

I was at a spring swimming the other day and saw a pretty blue rock
blub blub blub blub........ haven't free dived in years
but here I go 30 feet into a cave after a stinkin blue rock to see how fine it is

STOP just STOP :rant:

Well there are two ways out:
Either we stop talking about hones, which I find highly undesirably and unlikely
or you go here, scroll down a little and look at so many nice rocks that you become more relaxed. :)

Too bad the hone from Sham is so far away. I'd love to know what it is really

Good Lord Olivia...those pictures of rocks did not relax me. :p
I think Sham should let us come over, lay our hands on his honing stone and hum and meditate...im sure its source will come to us. lol

ok, if that technique with beauty overload doesn't work,
we'll try scary HAD:
Go here and click on "Sharpening Stones"!

Meditating would be nice but we could also try to analyze briefly with acids and microscopes and the like...
