Spectacular reveals, I enjoyed this video as usual. The excitement you show is amazing. Thank you for always being yourself.
I appreciate your comment, thank YOU (all of you) for letting me be myself ❤️
How could I buy one? Julie
Killer colors!! The blue and orange ones were off the charts.😎😎
This is why imo agates are better than precious gems (diamonds, rubies, emeralds and sapphires) despite not been commercially as valuable, they're all unique which means there's always something new to see
I feel the same for agates and opals interms of the uniqueness making them alot better looking than all other 'precious gems'.
I do a lot of sapphire fossicking and you'd be surprised how different they can be. All the colours of the rainbow. Some with 2 or 3 different colours. It's mind blowing seeing precious gems in your sieve that came out of a dirty creek. But I understand what you're saying. I've bought 7kg of these Malawi agates. Pretty fun to cut 👍🏻
Wow! Those Malawi agates are BEAUTIFUL! That one that looked like it had purple bands was really exceptional! Gorgeous!
Thank you so very much for doing this! It is so wonderful that we older folks get to experience this, with all the technology we have today!
The orange one with the purple quartz in the middle reminds me of a candle flame. That blue one is SO pretty too
I bought some Malawi babies after seeing one of your videos. They were so incredible, (several as gorgeous as the blue & yellow one) that I just bought a couple more pounds of them, plus some of the larger nodules. Excited to recover from my carpal tunnel release surgery & cut into them!
Thanks so much for posting great content
First thought was Mesmerizing! Pure NATURAL UNTREATED BEAUTY! Such an honor to behold the revealed heart of the stone. Thank you 😊.
That “long” agate at 14:50 reminds me of a mountain range or iceberg or battleship. It is really cool to see how unique these all are. Thanks for sharing.
Love it!
Stunning reveals !!! That last one has got to be one of the most beautiful agates I've ever seen. Thanks !!!!!
That green one is super gorgeous!
That Rock with the two Geo Pockets that you just showed when you put those two halves together it was shaped like a butterfly oh my goodness those are so beautiful thank you for sharing all your agates and things with all of us and how you cut them mother nature does an amazing job making beautiful things I would take an agate any day over any diamond or precious gems absolutely love❤ agates my favorite Agate is crazy lace agate I have one on my necklace and I wear it everyday it is my favorite necklace to wear
Nature is an amazing artist. Thank you for sharing these beauties with us!
Blue and orange together are my absolute favorite! Freaking STUNNER!
I love malawi agates they are so frickin awesome and I would have to say the smiley one was my favorite very cool
They’re so good!
Love the blue and orange one with quartz pocket. The bands are gorgeous!
Oh so beautiful. I just love watching you open these amazing agates
holy cow Taylor, those were seriously some premium cuts. My head is spinning; what a sweet batch!! That gnarly one with the botryoidal pocket was my favorite, it has SO much going on. Thanks for the content my friend. And thanks again for the special note for my son Jude, can't wait to see his face when he reads it Christmas morning. Take care
WOW, I love the blue and orange agate!!! Orange and blue being complimentary colors on the color wheel, makes each other stand out more. Beautiful!!! (Which is why grocery stores use a blue background for their oranges display. Makes the oranges look orangier 😊.)
The ones you showed at end, so fabulous! I love the gold and white colors! Real fun to watch, thank you!
So, so beautiful! I love the blue and orange. But they were all really cool.
When I saw that opener in color 😱 I could feel your reaction, what an absolute stunner 🙌 great cuts!
Wow these agates are absolutely stunning. The last one was so very cool. Total blessing to see these. Would love to do this.
Wow! They are all spectacular but my favorite one is the last one with the vibrant colors. Very cool.
I think they are ALL beautiful. And your enthusiasm, as you cut and reveal, is contagious!!! 😊😊
Oh my gosh! Your excitement is so contagious!! I found myself grinning ear to ear when you opened up that agate that you almost bet your saw away for! Amazing agates! Great video! Thanks for sharing that experience!
Such bright colors! My goodness! I love the ones that have orange in them.
One of the best all around cutting videos of all time
You rock 🪨
Hello my druid friend from a past life, long long ago. I was so shocked to recognize your soul in the video but to see that you are still working with the elements makes me so happy to see!! You can take the Druid out of the forest, but you can't take the forest out of the Druid. Wishing you many blessings in this life soul brother! Be Well!! 👋😊
These are delightful!!!!Thank you for showing them to us!!!
OMG, best results video I've I've seen of yours! Those colors!!

Friday started out great with all these beautiful cuts ❤
I think so too!
That blue and orange one wow ! Just total wow
I walked about 4 km on lake Ontario this week-end as the weather was incredibly mild... I collected a few rocks... They were not as beautiful as these agates but the pleasure was the same!!😅 Thank you for sharing these treasures with us. Now I'm always wondering what they would look if they were cut... 😂! Even my vocab has improved!!
We used to set the small Agate Creek agates in plaster in an empty milk carton and cut the whole thing into slices. Great fun.
I love nerding out about rocks and gemstones. I do not have the means or space to cut rocks but at least I can watch.
Thanks for sharing ❤ this beautiful creations 🌟
Awesome gates, some great colours and fortifications!
Absolutely beautiful!
Those were incredible to see!
Those blue ones are mind blowing.
Those agates are insanely beautiful. 🎉 congratulations on a successful cutting session☺️
Nice chatoyancy in that blue one. And that orange sorbet face is lovely.
I enjoyed , they are all beautiful 🤗
Thank you 🌺
Those are all phenomenal! I watch another YT channel that involves crocodiles and alligators and his community has come up with a motto of "All alligator and crocodile lives matter!" I think in your case it's, 'All Agate cuts matter!' All Beauties in their own rights. Thanks for what you share with us, it's OUTSTANDING!
Very cool!
Love that agate with the green husk
Which agate was your favorite?!
Will tell you in about 10 mins 😅
@@sahilrawat5621😂😂😂
The smiley face is my favorite.
We've all been caught out by choosing an early favourite, and I'm always happy to be wrong, beautiful pieces again.
Smiley face of course ! It’s your signature 😊
I could watch opening acts all day!
Do you ever show jewelry made from the cuttings?( Pieces ) That last one was phenomenal 🎉😂❤
Great video once again. Those cuts were spectacular ... my favorite from this session of cutting is the green one. Like you said, the depth of those bands are incredible
That double window is pretty epic
Also, I messaged you on IG
Thanks, I’ll try to get to that soon
I'm so glad you didn't have to give away your son.
It's like opening up Christmas presents only so much better. They are stunning! Thank you.
Orange and blue was the best I’ve seen you cut🤗
I’m a new sub. I’ve loved collecting rocks since I was a kid. My parents used to joke that I would come home from vacation 50lbs heavier....just in rocks! I don’t know one rock from another. I just like pretty rocks! I have them in decorative glass bowls all over! I love watching you videos! Thank you!
dayum, these turned out awesome.the thumbnail agate was my favorite 😄
So pretty the blue and orange 🎉
Yeah man, those were crazy cool!

Halloween Agate with the face, so many to choose from, got a few winners, love the green husk too.
Love these. Have a stash myself. Highest “hit” rate out there for the buck, in my opinion.
Totally agree!
Where is the source of Malawi agates?
Great video:) you can minimize the blowouts while using the vise. I always use one. When the cut is nearly done, slow the speed and pressure down to near nothing, and hold the end sticking out with your hand to subtly guide it through the last millimeter;)
Great tip!
I stand by my favorite!
Beautiful!!!
All so beautiful.
Love the smiley one the best
That one is so cool
Love watching you 💕
What a session 🤩🤩🤩
Right?!
