Look beautiful
This wood looks beautiful as handles for a serving tray. I'm still new to wood working and this was my first attempt at an exotic wood. DANG this wood was hard, but it made my Maple trays look great.
Familiarity: I've used it once or twice

Great stuff
Nothing but great thing to say about this wood and woodworkersource. Just with the pandemic would end so shipping wasn't delayed like it is. That's not a big deal as you just need to plan accordingly. Will definitely purchase more stuff in the future
