Some Great old growth Cocobolo for sale!

Cocobolo is considered the classic knife handle wood. Its incredible strength ratings mean it stands up in even the hardest use knives. But cocobolo is best known for being the king of the kitchen. Its beautiful warm reds, yellows and deep browns make it a stunning wood to look at, its water proof qualities make it easy to maintain and long lasting, and its incredible oil content keep the handle sanitary by actively killing microbes that are on the wood's surface. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!

Nope. You can't stabilize cocobolo. I had a talk about this with Chuck from alpha knife supply, the wood just weeps stabalizer and it never sets.

And cocobolo doesn't need it. The wood is already heavier than water, incredibly durable, waterproof and sreong.
 
Working properties are very similar, kingwood is a little tougher and a little heavier but both are very close. I'll actaully be home in a few weeks and will be milling up a new batch of kingwood if you are interested.
 
That will be 27 dollars, paypal is bengreenberg415@gmail.com, and please include the address in the paypal order.

Im currently at college an i'll be going home for spring break in about 2 and a half weeks, and I have 7 or 8 really nice blocks that will be going up then, followed by many more that i have to mill out of some logs.

Keep your eyes open, before I go home im posting some great gaboon ebony.
