Not nearly as large as yours! Mine was just one pound. It's so lightweight, though, that it takes up quite a bit of volume (as I'm sure you know by
now). To cut mine up I just used a big kitchen knife and lots of mineral oil.
I think your best bet for cleaning up the 'cuttings' from cleaning the larger pieces is to melt it under oil and siphon it off with a syringe, since
you'll have so much junk to get rid of. The clean sodium will sink to the bottom.

Here's my sodium in paraffin oil (large hdpe bottle and small jar) and the small mixture of sodium and sodium hydroxide in toluene. The sample in the
toluene is much cleaner and shinier.

Here's more picture.
Sodium 2lbs!
Is anyone interested in buying some sodium? 1 lb for 100.00 includes shipping.

I just bought 2lb from jamit and I must say that the service and communication was excellent. It was well-packed and shipped very fast.
Cutting it was not an issue:
