Does anybody know what the type of wood is in the picture I posted below is. A guy at work gave it to me and said he got it from a buddy who builds high end custom furniture. It shines like it has a finish on it but I was told it doesn't?
Ross sorry for jumping in on your thread.
cherry= needles

basswood=swimmers

that looks like cocobolo....hard as a rock...makes your skin itch when turning it...they make nun-chuck handles out of it....I'd just though it on shelf and not use it unless your a pro on a lathe.
