I have a large chunk of monkeypod tree (about 15 - 20 handles worth) that my parents brought back from Hawaii and a piece of ebano (about 6-10 handles worth). From what I've been able to gather, the monkeypod tree is in the same family as Koa wood and the ebano is ebony's mexican cousin. I've never seen either of these woods on a blade and was just wondering whether or not anyone in the forums has tried them out and had any luck.
