There are: 4 from Illinois, 1 from Pennsylvania, 1 from Kansas, 2 are unmarked. All have a groove for mounting on wood; however three are 3/4 grooved, one from Rock County, Illinois is unique in that the groove has been ground on all sides even after being squared. This unique shape from Illinois means that the stone could be mounted in a number of ways. A second stone from Fulton County, Ill. has the same mounting pattern! All have a wedge appearance.
