Borneo Rosewood

Borneo Rosewood is an uncommon wood from Southeast Asia. Species name is: Melanorrhoea usitata. The density is high (about 90% of real lignum vitae in many cases) and many have found it to be an excellent turning wood. These have a very nice deep red color. Some skin reaction is possible with this wood. Either wear gloves or wash hands thoroughly after working on it. The sensation is like a very faint hot pepper feeling.

Knife Blanks

Borneo Rosewood 200to207

Borneo Rosewood is a deep red wood that tends to hold the red color over time. In fact it sometimes deepens to cranberry red but so far in the last decade I haven't seen one turn brown, just deeper red. These pieces were carefully dried, and drying takes quite awhile under controlled conditions. The wood is quite dense and is also considered rare. We label things as "knife blanks" when they are not squares in most cases. We don't have much of this wood left, so we hope everyone can enjoy it while it is still here. It comes from Laos mostly, where there are a lot of restrictions on wood exports.
