Koa
$63.00 – $273.00
Koa
$63.00 – $273.00This Hawaiian wood shimmers like gold. Koa is one of my favorite woods. It’s also the material of choice for the traditional Hawaiian ocean going canoes since Koa is the largest endemic tree in Hawaii. Nowadays sizable trees demand a high price since the easily accessible Koa forests are being cleared for cattle grazing. This wood may become more scarce as time goes on, but for now there is still plenty of Koa around and it is not on the CITES list nor is it expected to be in the near future as Koa trees grow over an inch in diameter a year.

The particular Hickory we use Texas Swamp Hickory. It grows in the swampy creek bottoms of my native East Texas and is a close relative of the Pecan.
