When sanding it tends to clog up the sandpaper. it is oily yes but not as oily as Tambotie. I will take pictures of some other work done with it and post it. it is my favourite wood to work with.

Nice pens.
If you hadn't told us differently, I would have thought that the pens were made from two different types of wood.
