Preface: I'm trying to educate myself about CRKs in advance of purchasing a wood inlayed Damascus 21, so I'll probably be making a bunch of annoying posts in the coming days. Bear with me!
This question more-or-less simply satisfies my curiosity. Are they more expensive to produce (i.e., is Box Elder Burl harder to come by/inherently more expensive)?
Or is it simply a matter of supply and demand in the retail market? Of the wood inlays that CRK currently produces, BEB seems to be the hardest to come by. Is that because they're more sought after and quickly purchased? Or does CRK make less of them?
Thanks!
EDIT: I'm trying to find a Box Elder Burl with some "rosy" hues, or a Spalted Beech with some deep, rich red colors. They seem to be rare!!
