Looking for african blackwood?

[Chuck Gedraitis Knives]

Who's the best source for it? I have a customer who would like it for scales on a folder and did not find any at the NY show. Dimensions I am looking for are 1/8thick X1-1/2in wide X4in long. Or thick enough to split and get 2 pieces out of.
Thanks,
Chuck

This is where I get mine: http://www.gilmerwood.com/ I did happen to notice $100. minimum order. If you don't have any luck finding some send me an email and I can help you out. Mine has not been stabalized but as far as I'm concerned its a wood that doesn't need it.
