Nono...
"On the item is an image of Urist McDeathwish in slade. Urist is laboring. The image relates to the creation of Painhauling the slade anvil by Urist McDeathwish of HorrorCircus, the Enterprises of Pain in the spring of 666."

Using DFusion I managed to create several Slade items. Here are their names and weight in urist:

*slade bracelet* 20U
-slade figurine of Shorast Worldwires- 200U
-slade mini-forge- 200U
and my personal favorite:

If you want a point of reference, here are some random item weights:

Though that slade bracelet looks stylish, wearing it might affect walking speed.
A slade mini-forge is over twice as heavy as an iron anvil.
And now, the best part

So... I switched to adventure mode, and managed to pick up over 800 U of slade goodness...

Found a nice slade quarry full of undead penguin people. It's still inaccessible to my fort, so I can take my time making sure the dorfs don't starve or something, then go all out at it. The time of ‼SCIENCE‼ is almost upon us.

Also, it's unfortunate that we can't use slade to make chains or something, it'd make the perfect prison material...

Something of an... anti-climax.

Make the damn slade warhammers and test them.

Nah, rock is not a default item for use in artifact weapons, barring modded weapons, like the rock warhammers of Genesis. Also the Planepacked glitch only provides extra value, the little tassels and menacing spikes don't actually affect combat.

No, but that does allow for slade decorations, so it's most definitely an interesting idea.

Just a note:

Both genesis and masterwork do allow rock weapons. Masterwork mod also has a reaction that compresses 10 stones into 1 slade boulder. And slade siegeammo, a slade metal, and so on. ;)

How would slade do as catapult ammunition?

Catapults kind of suck right now, plus it would destroy the slade, but if it hits would it do extra damage?

bit of an understatement don't you think ASCIt?

slade is also nice in stonefall traps, the trouble is getting it loaded in, try stone stockpiles for slade only in your main hall.

I feel sorry for the invaders...

That's... worse than getting mangled by a horde of angry elephants.
