About the Apache Strata U.S.:
This stone is found in a single protected location in the southwestern USA. The chemistry of Apache Strata puts it above many of the world’s most popular hones. This stone is found in an endemically iron-rich locale and is approximately 400 million years old (Devonian era on a geological time scale). Apache Strata comes in many hues and subtle patterns. Colors you may find are: sandy brown, medium and light gray, medium and light brown. The smooth microcrystalline-grained texture makes the raw stone look almost edible!

Why is it so special?
Somehow, Mother Nature hit one out of the park with Apache Strata! She proves once again that she is the best alchemist–infusing the perfect amount of iron into the cryptocrystalline silica layer where Apache Strata is found. That perfect hint of iron gives Apache Strata amazing cutting power without being aggressive. When you gently tap the hone with another stone, it gives off a stunning metallic ping sound as if you were hitting a piece of cold steel–yeah, it’s that awesome. The chemistry in this stone is seemingly magical.
