Lots and Lots of Really Nice Ironwood, Buckeye and Maple Burl
This thread is going to be a long one with lots of different types of burl. I am so sure you will love these pieces that they come with a No Questions Asked, Money Back Guarantee.

Please read this.
These pieces are natural wood. They have not been stabilized. These blocks were cut from wood stored outdoors under cover for at least two years, so you should probably give them at least a couple weeks to acclimate before using. I belt sanded these blocks to 120 grit and wiped them with a very light surface coat of Minwax "Wipe On Poly" so you can get a better idea how this wood will look finished. It will sand off easily with out gumming up your sandpaper. When you fine sand and finish these blocks the figure and grain will become much more defined than what you see in these photos.

When you see pieces you like just post; "I'll take #s ......" and I will mark them sold for you. US shipping via Priority Mail is $5 total for up to 3 blocks or $10 for 4 or more. Canada is $10 up to 3 or $25 for 4 or more. Our address for Paypal is itsaburl@hotmail.com.

This is old stock Ironwood that came from the estate of an old wood turner.
Some of the blocks may have a couple hairline checks you can fill with CA glue if they don't trim away when you shape your handle.

These are natural buckeye blocks so you will want to have them stabilized.
Buckeye burl will have voids, checks and bark pockets. Some fills may be required.
