I have a chance to get some Santos Mahogany, guy is selling it for 4.50bf, might take an offer of less. I'm not familiar with the wood, and haven't been able to find info on how it is to work, outside of a few mentions of it being a bit tough.

I don't want to get stuck with wood that, however beautiful, is a PITA to use.

So, could folks who've used this wood compare it to some other common woods in terms of ease of working it?

Thanks -

Ken
