Mixed exotic wood bundles

[Greenberg Woods]

Hey Guys, i made up some bundles of exotic and stabilized wood, and i thought i would offer a bit of a deal on them. Each set is 10% off the sum of the blocks values. Shipping is included in the price

Woods involved are:

Kingwood: Super dense rosewood, this purple and black wood is an amazing wood to work with. Great color, a strength rating about 15 percent higher than that of desert ironwood, and as waterproof as cocobolo! A great choice. All kingwood blocks listed are 1.5 - 1 - 6

Cocobolo: Classic knifemakers wood, Cocobolo is incredibly strong and incredibly beautiful. Bright reds, yellows and oranges make this an amazing wood, and its strength and water proof characteristics make it one of the best woods to use in the kitchen. This particular batch is old growth, in the U.S by at least 1954. This means the wood is stronger, heavier and has a higher concentration of oils than the new growth materials imported more recently. All cocobolo blocks listed are 1.75 - 1 - 6

Bocote: Great exotic, Bocote is reasonably strong and oily, and should not present any major issues when working. Bright yellow color with black banding. Each scale is 2 - 5/16 - 5

Macassar Ebony: Very heavy and strong ebony, high quality macassar like this is black streaked through with red/ caramal lines. Great choice for blades. Each scale is 1.5 - 5/16 - 5

Bias Cut black palm: This is very high grade palm cut at about a 45 degree angle to show some beautiful figure. Its hard to pick up on camera, but it looks like scales in the wood. This wood was heavily stabilized by K&G. The great thing about bias cut palm is that it sells knives! "here is a thread where stacy and others talk about palms ability to sell a knife

All palm blocks are 2 - 1 - 5

Gaboon Ebony: This is high grade gaboon ebony, the darkest wood available. Its very hard and strong, commonly used by itself or as a bolster for other woods. Great choice. Blocks are at least 1.5 - 1 - 6

Partridge wood: This is a wood I have found no info about, and when sites list partridge wood it is DEFIANTLY not this stuff. I have been using it as a lignium vitae substitute, as it is INCREDIBLY dense, about 1.2 specific gravity! Its also strong as all holy hell! One of the heaviest and strongest woods I have used. Blocks are 2 - 1 - 6

Suriname Ironwood: Another wood I have found nothing about, and treat like lignium. Its heavy, hard and oily. Very strange coloration, as it is somewhat orange with a random distribution of black throughout it. Blocks are 2 - 1 - 6

Redwood burl: This is a chunk of super curly redwood burl, there is some amazing figure here! Block is 2 - 1 1/8 - 6
