Its a celt (axe) made out of meteoritic iron. Those are very rare. The style is similar to an Arkansas-Missouri style that dates to roughly 800AD. Whats the story on it?

Yup. a neodymium magnet should react to it. a refrigerator magnet probably not. Its Iron/nickel.

A lot of folks say that when they find one but the thing with hematite is that it does not grind and polish well like that. Hematite has to be heat treated in a very hot fire, almost to the point of smelting before it can be polished like that. Meteoritic iron is already heat treated from falling through the atmosphere.

I think that is one of the coolest things anyone on here has posted as finding, second only to the flounder in the forest.
The true mark of a man is not how he conducts himself during times of prosperity, but how he conducts himself during times of adversity.

Wonder how many tools he went through to make that. Bet he was the talk of the tribe when he got done and was a chopping

S.o.b. Not much. Iron grinds pretty easy against stones. Think about sharpening your knives. He still had a better ax than most everybody else with stone axes.

Not sure what it is or what it’s made of. But If I’m not mistaken it appears to have a rest notch. 
Well, the way I see it is there's just too many assholes
On a good day there's a bunch of assholes in here.
