Thats cool Bill, good find. Easy to make, and very handy to have in camp.
Many uses for something like that, & you could make a larger version as well.

that would work pretty good to use as a knife handle as well using the same idea to make sure your rock that you made into a knife blade will hold nice and tight then just wrap some cord and maybe some pitch and your good

> there is a Gem store close to me & they sell it in natural form, people by it & make jewlery. Im the only customer that makes edged weapons with it  it is cheap really. I got a piece the size of a soft ball for $ 10.00
Insane sharp pieces you can get.
