anyone know anything about it?
I had several boards given to me, it is the heaviest wood I have found, light red, not color difference in the grain.
seems like it would be good riser wood,
anyone ever use it?

Ps 8:3 ¶ When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

I've used it in a riser before. It finishes nice.

jess stuart

I agree with Trux it is a great riser wood.

Yes, nice to work. I see Tomahawk has it in their limbs now....
Stay sharp, Kenny.

I've used it with great results.  Built a longbow using it as part of my riiser.

brazilian cherry makes a great backed bow as well.  one of my favorites is a hickory backed.  thin limbs and took no string set.  wish i still had it.  got a bamboo back one waited for tiller for about a year now.
