What Does The Janka Hardness Rating Mean?
The Janka hardness test is the international standard for measuring the resistance of a sample of wood to denting and wear.
It's expressed in psi, or pounds-per-square-inch. The test measures the pressure required to embed an 11.28mm (.444 in) diameter steel ball into wood to half the ball's diameter. The measurement was developed to determine whether a species is suitable for use as flooring; however, we include it here and compare it to the rating of red oak to help you make a buying choice.
There is a difference between hardness and being difficult to work with. Generally speaking, the harder the wood the easier it is to finish and polish. Harder woods create good, solid long-lasting joinery in furniture.
The hardness of wood varies with the direction of the wood grain, and varies from piece to piece. So a Janka rating is an average of numerous tests performed on all directions and numerous pieces. Use the Janka hardness rating as guide, not a definitive answer.

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
