My boss brought me a piece of wood that had belonged to his grandfather and asked me to make some pens from it. He thought it was cherry, but I am quite sure it is not. It reminded me of Luan when in square form, but now in a pen it looks like an oak grain. It cut and worked like a dream. Any help in identifying the wood species would be much appreciated. I am attatching a small picutre and the rest of the pic can be viewed in high res at <a href="http://www.alkinburgh.com/gallery/jimspen">my website.</a>
Thanks for the help!
