Cracking A Keokuk Geode With Our New Geode Cracker

We got a new toy in the mail, a geode cracker. Here's a video of us cracking a crystal filled Keokuk geode with it. The geode cracker is a modified pipe cutter, which allows you to apply a force on a line around the geode instead of just at one spot. It will give you a cleaner break with much less chance of damaging the crystals inside than trying to crack a geode with a hammer and chisel.
We just added a selection on whole/uncracked geodes for sale at FossilEra.com We can crack your geode for you, or you can crack it yourself.
