Got to use some sandstone I bought a couple of months ago in Utah, laid into crystal Ti, Ti liners have micro polished bevels, Ti spacer textured and anodized to match tones, UK carry design dual detent with stainless blade. Hope you enjoy. Ig (not available thank you)

Thank you. Apparently its Navajo sandstone, I bought it at the Eastern Ranger station entrance to Zion National Park. There were only a handful of sections but I found one with amazing patterns. Will upload a couple of photos.

Thank you! Much appreciatedIMG_4670.jpegIMG_4578.jpeg
 
That picture sandstone is amazing, the ranger station doesn't have a gift shop but there is one just before entering Zion. I go through that area several times a year, the West entrance is only 20 miles from my home.

Ah, it was a shop close to the entrance, maybe I made an error on the Googling. I also got a jacket there, was chilly in Jan
