Boba Debt Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Sikhote Alin is classified as a “Coarsest” iron, that means it has the widest band width of the widmanstatten pattern or the largest clusters of crystals This is the meteorite that destroyed a large part of a Russian forest in 1947 Processed Sikhote Alin is very rare and smaller pieces go for $4-$6 per gram on eBay, and now I know why. This material is very hard to cut and tricky to etch. I decided to process the last 2 large end cuts into smaller pieces that are less expensive Most of these pieces are freshly cut from the saw and will require additional finishing. If you are interested in any piece I can polish and / or etch it prior to your final decision to purchase it. In the case of mutiple cut faces you can request to have any combination of polish and etched surfaces.
