I’m going to guess that one was the single. Very nice.👍 Will you be cutting the potential double soon? And, what kind of saw are you running?

Was able to get this beauty cut open. Surprise! I don't think this is a thunderegg and def not a geode - agate nodule then? It seems to have pretty blueish banding around the outer with the nice crystally middle. Am going to make a slab to see if color stands out better. Is that the single or the double? That's the double. Doesn't look much like what I was expecting...but still pretty. Need to do a true slab to try and see what colors look like with light.

No, that was the double - the initial rock I shared asking about how to cut. Was a bit of a surprise - I didn't take a picture of the single - but should share it. I'ts somewhat underwhelming, but is a geode. Still quite pretty. I have a Lortone 14" drop saw. I did finally find a blade from Kingsley North (asked 2 questions, got them answered and had tracking all in under 4 hours, unlike Cutting Edge - they shipped the blade eventually, but I've never heard a peep from them, even still).
