Best Answer

To crack open a geode you have to take a masonry flat chisel, hold at top center of rock, then strike with hand-held sledge hammer, then rotate the rock a little bit to create a line around the circumference of the stone, last repeat, as necessary, until the rock splits open.

A cast iron pipe cutter works best. Geodes can also be sawn with a diamond blade, or as a last resort, score around the perimeter with a rock chisel, then give it a good hard tap to crack it open.

You can take a cloth and place it over the geode.Then you take a hammer and hit the top of the geode still under the cloth.Try that a few times.
