CincinnatuxFor what it's worth, I kept mine in a dive bag. And the d4 has already splintered. Kind of disappointed at this point as I don't plan on using them again for fear of shattering them.

CincinnatuxIn my experience, hematite is very fragile, and I would recommend against putting these in a dice bag.
I'd also recommend rolling on a mat, and not directly on a hard surface.

anroSolid advice, though in the end I simply don't use them. While I love the heft, I hate having to squint to read them every time I throw 'em. They are purely decor on my gaming shelf at this point. I have a pair of steel d6 dice that I bought from The Dice Tower at a tabletop convention in Ohio a few years back that I love, though. Easy to read and they hit the table with authority without worry of the dice breaking each other.

I am also curious to know if anybody has done anything to make the numbers more visible. I can read them without squinting, but it would be better (IMO) to have a high-contrast color there. Way back in the day of cheap plastic dice I used to rub crayon into the grooves to provide that contrast, but these metal dice have extremely shallow engraving and I doubt crayon wax would stick. Any thoughts out there?
