Aboout palm- size I guess.  Could be smaller.  Just something I can keep a good grip on while striking.  Fingers don't work so good any more, and the bigger pieces are easier for me to hold on to. 

If you have something that isn't arrowhead material, that would be great.

Sorry Mods.  Just realized that "Good Dealings" is the proper place for my last post so I put one there as well.  You may delete this one if need be.
