Two coffin wood blanks split from a piece of drift wood. There is some tear and checking in the wood. By no means perfect. Still nice coloration and density. 25$ for the pair plus shipping. 46.5x7~10x6.5cm / 46x7~8.5x5cm

Byron,

You have any leads on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fagus_hayatae

Also looking for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fagus_japonica
along with a few others...All this beach talk has me thinking of beech.
I thought I had a branch of that years ago, but it turned out to be an elm species. I can definitely keep my eyes open. It’s a species I’ve wanted to try for bow making for years now, but have never run into the tree. It seems to grow at higher elevations than I’m located at.
