    Default Two burls

    I bought these over 10 years ago, can't remember what they supposedly are. Red / brown mallee or similar. See photos for cracks and cuts. Ruler is 12".

    $80 not negotiable. Pickup only from Abbotsford VIC.

    Look like Coolibah burls ( having just finished five of them). They come up really nice, and give heaps of sharpening practice as well!

    Yup -- look like coolibah to me.
    Don't mind sharpening, a few seconds and you're done.
    However sanding is a pain...... a good excuse to get the best finish you can off the tool.
