I am also curious if anyone has used soapstone.
I have read that the negatives of using soapstone as a kitchen countertop are that the longest piece is 7 feet so if applicable your counter will have to be pieced together. Due to the softness of the stone it is subject to nicks and scratches. It only comes in darker colors and it darkens with time.
It would probably be great for an outdoor fire pit because it is nonporous and who cares if it gets nicked up.
