1 1/8" x 5" x 12" and with a density of about 60lbs/cuft, this stuff is hard as nails (Janka 2300 but it seems even harder) and will polish to a glass finish. This particular piece I picked out because of its being more grainy than usual.
I'm pretty sure that if you tried to drive a nail into this you would either split the wood or bend the nail and my bet is on bending the nail.
