I have stocked these for a long time. When what i have runs out, I will not restock. IMO probably not a sustainable timber.
No worries, just reducing stacks

Just how many do you have left, approximately? Chuck
Definitely not sustainable. It‘s one of the most endangered of all dalbergias. D. Cochinchinensis, some of the asian ones, d. Maritima/louvelii and d. Nigra probably supersede it but close behind is d. melanoxylon.

Probably hundreds. Last time I bought it was a 48x48x40" crate full. A lot.....
Hey Mike - do you have 2-3 that are deep dark black and defect free left?

I sort out the effects. I do not sort for color. But yes I do have 2 or 3
Mike, I can make the 1.5x1.5 work, but would prefer 2x1.5 or 2x2. Any that size?

I repeat- I do not sort for color. If I do that- Price goes up- my time is worth something- but real reason- another reason to not be happy and the next guy has worse selection. I you want sorted for color my advice go some where you pick thru them and hope someone else did not take the darkest. PS no new rule- I have sold these for about 10 years- always sort for flaws- never color..
How much longer are longer ones? I'd be interested in five longer than 12".
