Hi Tom, Thanks for reading it. Normally I pass on recent finds for my collection, but the shape and story of Souslovo was too good to skip.
I made up the term "Toolbox Meteorite" (not to be confused with NASA's Toolkit "Meteorite" that should be arriving any time now). I needed a name for meteorites that are used as tools, whether doorstops, paperweights, or wheelchocks prior to entering our collection. However, I have seen a few continue on as tools even after entered into a meteorite collection catalog, usually in the role of a doorstop. Tom, I wish I still lived close to you. I think you would have a blast scoping Souslovo with all its chondritic oddities.
