Bloodwood 17to27

High quality DRIED bi-color bloodwood. We have taken the extensive period of time to slow dry these, and then remove any defects after the drying is over. These have variegated colors and they were picked for that different look. 17 has a burly figure near the top. Figure is very rare in bloodwood. Providing this dried defect free wood is at least 4 times as much labor and about 30% more expensive for materials as providing wet waxed wood which may or may not have cracks. Our standard is much higher than the normal industry average.

Bloodwood 1to6

Dried bloodwood in ultra rare PRIMO PLUS grade. Bloodwood grades of primo are way above average for bloodwood and have a nice saturated red color. Note that we do our best with photos but we really cannot show how nice these are. Primo Plus is a new grade we had to add to explain the quality of this limited supply of deeper red , usually higher density and finer grained bloodwood. This is probably not replaceable once gone, we last had this (but only 1" thick) in 2012 and don't see a way to get more. This was a one time lucky find that came from a single large log. The extra care we take: Dried bloodwood is a big feature because bloodwood over 1.5 inches thick is really quite difficult to dry and cannot be forced. Kiln drying sometimes works but usually just ends up ruining all the wood. Dense bloodwood often gets internal cracks when drying that you only find out about once you cut into it. This is not a good surprise to customers, so we make sure any pieces over 1" thick are dried very gently in a multi step process that can take years. Even this means we lose about 1/3 of the wood due to cracking, but we wait for any cracks to form and then cut them out before we send the wood. There is a huge difference between these pieces and the cheaper waxed ones (most of which have hidden cracks in the ends and other places) that are sold by most other companies.

Bloodwood 28to38

Dried Bloodwood in the high grade primo color. There is a small percentage of bloodwood with this color so these are normally considered "selected best". Dried over long periods slowly to avoid the degrade caused by kiln drying bloodwood. (Bloodwood is notorious for getting internal (totally hidden) checks that run the length of the piece on the inside when kiln dried about 1.25 inches thick). This is a precious wood that will be harder to get the future. Brazil is trying to lockdown most all wood cutting by 2030, or before. Brazil is the only good source of this wood unless you want cardinalwood which is a usually brown wood with faint red tones that grows in other countries.

Bog Oak 1.5 x 1.5 x 6's

Saltwater Bog Oak from Ukraine. These high grade pieces are considered the darkest in color which generally means they are the oldest. They are about 7500 years old . The white areas are salt crystals, you can flick them out with a pin or keep them in to maintain the unusual character of these. A certificate is available, just request that in the comments section when checking out. These were carbon dated by a laboratory.

Bolivian Rosewood AtoJ

Bolivian Rosewood, dried pieces in 2 x 2 x 12. We planed them to check for defects so they are now mostly 1 15/16 inches square, but some are longer than listed. The smallest any of them are is 1 7/8 inches square after planing them smooth. We dry these for as long as it takes to get them to you ready to work. Most options sold on the market are wet wood, so be aware of the differences.

Brazilian Kingwood

This is Brazilian Kingwood. It is a genuine rosewood and becoming rare in quality pieces like these. Last time imported was about 5 years ago, but that was just a very small amount and before that it was many years prior for the last time allowed out of Brazil. We hope it will be allowed out of Brazil again, but the current situation is that we will likely run out in the near future.

Briar Burl AtoH

Briar Burl is a special wood usually used for making smoking pipes. It also turns out to be a great wood for woodworking too. Very easy to sand even though it is hard and the results are great. This is a very difficult wood to produce, the burls are odd small shapes with holes cracks and stones in the them. This is why you almost never see high quality blanks for sale, just the burls. The labor is prohibitive, but we like to make some for our customers from time to time because they are really interesting. Note: Prices actually went down from the last time we offered these years ago, we just got a better yeild this time!
