Hard to find and getting rare Aussie Purple Heart /Waddy Wood highly favoured for handplanes. The top is multi multi faceted one of fifty new for me designs much time and hand power.

Good fun.Collected by a World Wood Collector for me yrs ago true Desert Timber the property owners take precautions to preserve the species. No owners were injured in the process.
