My Uncle gave this to me this summer,while we were in Montana......He hadn't a clue what it was or where he had gotten it! He hounds world wide,so no telling where it came from..

Yeah, I wouldn't be sawing on that any more. Cool looking though. You know in the 50s asbestos filters made smoking healthier....

Arizona Tigereye ( Quartz pseudomorph after asbestos) found out around Globe, AZ. Work real wet as it can have loose asbestos fibers....Mel
PS: There is an even fancier type that comes from the Best Bet Mine near Applegate, CA. Gorgeous blue green and gold swirly stuff. Haven't seen any in person in like forty years, but it was really nice stuff. Shows up on E-bay now and then

cool, at my age I don't really worry about asbestos and other stuff. I feel by the time it catches up with me I will be too old to care.
