4 INCH LONG, 1/2 INCH WIDE STONE KNIFE BLADE, IT COULD USE A LITTLE SMOOTHING, BUT IT IS BASICALLY PRESHAPED. IT IS MADE OF ARKANSAS FINE GRAIN SILTSTONE. FOR BEST POLISHING RESULTS, I USUALLY FINISH OFF WITH A CLEAR COAT, THIS BRINGS OUT ALL THE GRAIN AND DARK LINES IN THE STONE.

THIS IS CUT TO MAKE A STONE PENDANT. IT IS MADE OF BUFALLO STONE, AND IS REALLY SOFT AND IS EASILY CARVED ON. IT IS NOT SMOOTH, BUT SIMPLE RUFF GRIT SANDPAPER WILL SMOOTH IT OFF QUICKLY AND EASILY.  IT IS 2 1/2 INCHES FROM SIDE TO SIDE EACH WAY, IT IS THICKER  ON ONE SIDE AND THINS OUT, BUT, PENDANTS WERE THIN, I LEFT IT A LITTLE THICK SO YOU COULD CARVE IN IT WITHOUT BREAKING IT, THEN ONCE YOU ARE DONE CARVING ON IT, YOU CAN THIN IT OUT.
