Rocks gems from Miles
3 polished jasper pieces
Fossil coral slice set 3.8 ounces
Fossil ocean coral set 3 ½ x 1 ½ x ¼ inches. Stabilized coral that would be porous calcium, treated to be hard for knife handle material or jewelry. Very unique interesting pattern. Can be worked like a hard wood or soft stone without diamond tools. Somewhat hard but I’d back it when working it even if temporarily. A little heavy like stone so keep that in mind. The advantage of fooling with something new like this is a top finished unique product. Could be cut for cabs in rings pendants etc. For knives could be also end caps guards inlays not just full handle.

meteorite slice 9.5 oz
Slice of meteorite Seymchan 9.5 ounces. 5 x 2.5 x 1/16th inches. I had in mind, knife blades but for any meteorite needs. Seymchan is good for knives and jewelry high end lot of nickel tends no to rust hs 'space dust' which includes micro diamonds that sparkle. Has very good patterning, interesting inclusions that do not weaken it. No major cracks. Used some of this for my own knives, worked well. Found in Russia 1967. Older than the planet earth. Rare hard to get. Nice even cut.
meteorite block 2.4 pounds
Meteorite block huge 2.4 pounds. Triangle is 6 x 3 x 1 and 1/2 inch thick. Seymchan from Russia found in 1967 known to not rust, good for knives and jewelry. Older then the planet earth. Has 'space dust,' including sparkly micro diamonds. I had for making knife blades but have not had time so passing this on, from my old inventory. $400 off the usual asking price by weight and keep in mind such large pieces are hard to find. I use a diamond saw to cut this but can be cut on any saw you'd cut knife steel (If you are a knife maker like me) I've used his for my own knives in the past and works well. An uneven thickness cut b cut one good flat side to work from. Or cut the other direction and go for 1 inch wide tapered like pocket knife blades or necklaces. This can make, geez a hundred pendants.
