I'm bettin it is still birch dyed yellow  :)  


I have a slab of yellow spectra, but the glue isn't dark, so it is pretty bland lookin. I didn't even put it on my site, was kinda disappointed .....

I have a 2x4x22" piece of the Osage Dymondwood here and it looks pretty good, better than the actionwood color, more like Osage. But it is birch dyed yellow like Kenny said. Binghams calls it lemonwood.

Gotta couple of slabs from Kenny and the Desert Camo was very pretty, have yet to work with the Green Camo and Dark Camo, great riser material.
But probably Yes, it's dyed birchwood made into laminates. Oh well. It looks great when made into a riser.
