Kynsa Black Wood

This popular wood is known as Knysna Blackwood. Originally from Australia, it was brought here in the early 1800s with its imposing natural luster, it's also ideal for turning, gluing, and finishes for stunning furniture. Furthermore, it may be a daunting task to find long straight boards given their very small profile and because they usually grow rather twisted than straight up. 

Unfortunately, exceptional premium pieces prices have risen while supplies have dropped over the last several years.

Knysna Black Wood still remains one of the world's most desired musical woods for acoustic luthiers, carvers, and fine furniture craftsmen alike.
