Handle: Snake-wood (piratinera guianensis)

Props: Snakewood is an incredibly beautiful wood which originates mostly in Suriname, South America. It is one of the worlds hardest woods. The part sold as snakewood is really the heartwood of the larger tree. This wood is usually felled with axes and carried on the backs of hard working natives over streams and through snake infested jungle areas. Each tree felled is monitored, and the government has developed a strict permit process to control harvesting. Much of the wood has inferior or no figure, but the small amount that has attractive figure is exported.The name was inspired by the snakeskin-like markings that decorate this exotic wood. Initially deep red in color, snakewood changes color upon being exposed to air, which makes the wood eventually turn reddish brown; as you see it today.

Origin: Suriname, South America.

Finish: Mirror polished stainless steel.
