  • To perform a scratch test, select a numbered Hardness point, and try to scratch a flat, smooth surface of the mineral. For example, if the number 6 point scratches your mineral, but the number 5 point does not, then your mineral has a Mohs' Hardness value of about 5.5. This is an important mineral identifying criteria.
  • The Hardness Points are made of Metals and Alloys of equivalent Mohs' Hardness as the mineral standards, so the points will not break off, and they can easily be re-sharpened, and ultimately replaced after many years. This beautiful and thoroughly conceived tool is made for the opposite of "planned obsolescence".
  • This is a perfect tool for Rockhounds, Geologists, and Archaeologists, as well as for Schools as an educational tool.
  • IMPORTANT: For Industrial users, instead, we highly recommend our especially configured Mohs' Hardness Test Kit. Just search Amazon using that keyword string.
