I have been buying high grade stabilized wood here and there for quite some time now. I use it for custom handles, but over the years I have acquired more than I need so I am clearing out my inventory to raise some cash. The majority of the wood came from Burl Source, the rest from Dream Burls, and a few from ebay. This is all really nice choice stuff, whenever Mark sent out emails of new wood from Burl Source, I opened them immediately to get first pick of best wood. There are some really nice pieces in here and the pics don't always do them justice, this is especially true for the koa pieces which all have excellent figure and chatoyancy. The Karelian Birch pieces are also really cool, Dave did a handle out of one of the Russian pieces that turned out stunning. Prices are exactly what I paid and all wood is in excellent condition, stored in my home. Most pieces are stabilized, aside from a few natural pieces.

Please add $5 for shipping if you buy one piece of wood or one set of scales. If you buy more than one item, I will only charge ACTUAL shipping costs via USPS. ALL SALES ARE US ONLY.

The wood is listed in order like you would read a calendar with 1 and 2 on the top and 3 and 4 on the bottom, and so on. Numbered wood descriptions on top, followed by two photos, one of each side. Thanks for looking.

FWIW, I had this box of woods in my posession for a bit a while ago when I was making handles for Anthony, and they are really nice and high quality pieces. If I had the funds (and not a few hundred wood pieces on my shelves) , I would pick a few or make him an offer for the whole box.

Stefan
 
I will also entertain reasonable offers to buy the whole lot, along with trade offers for the whole lot
 
4 & 7 don't get the attention they deserve, and 17 makes 2 wa handles. Just saying...

The following are all SOLD: 5, 9, 10, 15, 16, 18, 19, 20, 22, 23, 25, 26, and all 29-36

I will also entertain reasonable offers for multiple block purchases and offers for trades for nice 240 gyutos
