This is the 2nd batch of this wood, listed by request.
This is some of the wood I recently received in a shipment from Western Australia. The supplier stated that the wood is less than one year old so you should wait a little while before using. BBarnett uses the same wood from the same supplier. His recommendation was to let it sit for 12 months before using so it can fully dry and acclimate.
I suggest following Mr Barnett's advice since he is a knife maker with hands on experience using this wood. If you have the self discipline to wait, this is some really dramatic wood. I sanded it up real good and sealed it so it will look pretty for you while you wait. I have a couple pieces on my desk I am keeping there just to look at.
US Shipping is $2.50 for 1 block or free if you get 2 or more. Canada Shipping is $10 for up to 4 blocks. The rest of the world is $12 for up to 4 blocks. My address to make payment through paypal is itsaburl@hotmail.com.
When you decide which blocks you want, just post "I'll take #s ......" and I will mark them sold for you.

The Black Mulga is a Desert Acacia. It's like a combination of Desert Ironwood and Koa. Has the density of ironwood and grain & figure like koa. Maybe we should change it's name to "Black Ironwood Koa".
