BTW Ipe is Brazilian walnut...only a couple woods harder than it on the Janka scale. Not sure where Desert ironwood ranks.
4500 Lignum Vitae (Guaiacum species only)
3800 Snakewood
3680 Brazilian Walnut (Ipe)

Brazilian ironwood is Caesalpinia ferrea.
Ipe is one of several species of the Tabebuia family.
