Desert
Ironwood is one of the rarest and oldest living species on earth and
only grows in the Sonoran Desert. Old growth fiber and density is
reflective in its tight grain pattern. As such it makes for an
ideal tone wood or very stable knife handle. Its density and
natural stability also make it ideal for high end crafts because it will
not shrink or warp over time or climate change. Turning ironwood is a delight, because it carves very
well; does not splinter, finishes with ease and takes a beautiful
polish.

Desert
Ironwood has a specific gravity of 1.2, making it one of densest and
most stable woods on earth. It is so dense that it
will not float in water, and so hard that it has been used for bearings.
However, it turns and carves with ease using sharp hand, machine and CNC
equipment.
