Rosewood/Palisander (Dalbergia latifolia) - straight -
With this wood it is possible to manufacture a handle as desired. 1 block contains enough wood for 2 traditional Japanese handles.
All genuine rosewoods belong to the genus Dalbergia. This wood has a strong, sweet smell, which persists for many years, explaining the name rosewood. Classic rosewood comes from Dalbergia latifolia known as (East) Indian rosewood or sonokeling (Indonesia). It is native to India and is also grown in plantations elsewhere in Pakistan (Chiniot).
The types of wood offered here are well dried and without sapwood and woodworm. The wood may contain some small knots and knots, which is very nice with finished handles.
