Looks like the Nether's Farm variety. Great looking stuff.

Wow, what a find. So exciting to see the colors revealed when you make the cuts. I am envious. Karock

I think it's called "damned nice flint". Saw some like it at Tucson this year.

You have some very nice flint there. It is definitely hard to tell what is in Flint Ridge Fllint most of the time. And that stuff is really hard on a saw blade. It is tough stuff.
