Bugtussle, It knapps good, but like any stone high grade is alot easier than surprise crystal pockets an low quality stuff. I just try an make the nicest point out I can out of all my stone, The other day I had a pc of cobden that looks like crap but if you would have seen the stuff I went thru , makes it look a whole lot better to me.
