Is that a Bocote wood inlay on bladeart?

Since I am not a "Gold" member yet, I can't post pictures of my Bocote Wood Inlaid or my Birdseye Maple Wood Inlaid, but I would have to say that isn't Bocote for sure. Looks like more of a Maple.

There is a nice photo of the bocote Mnandi at

The small sebby is not bocote. Looks like maple to me as well.

My guess is Box Elder

Hello, I would have to agree that it is Box Elder also. It has a nice light pattern with the burl...
Nice knife!!

The small sebe is Box elder as Chess stated. I bought the large in Box elder from Larry (Bladeart)not too long ago. And the service was oustanding!! When he says "MINT", he means it!! There wasn't a flaw anywhere. PERFECT. Right now, my sebe is in for some cosmetic surgery. A double thumblug here and a small swedge there
