Yew has tight rings, some pieces have large knots and mineral streaking, but still beautiful.
The large blocks of osage have sapwood still on, but bark removed. Rings are pretty close, so the wood isn't as dense. There are a few small knots on the large blocks, the smaller pieces are clean.
Siyahs are $15 for both. They are osage, but because the rings aren't so thick they aren't very heavy. Weight is usually why osage isn't used, but these pieces should work fine. They are ~15" long x 1.6" wide. A centerline has been setup and the correct width profile set up. There are a few checks, but because the wood is nearly 5/8" thick and that the final thickness is very thin, they shouldn't be a problem.

I'll only sell them as 3 lots: yew, osage, and siyahs. I'm not going to sell the pieces seperately. I'm going to get them boxed up soon so I can start figuring out shipping costs for people.
