Marblecake English Walnut knife scalesItem Number: 2403.15.1024 "English Walnut, known botanically as Juglans regia, stands out as a premier choice for crafting knife scales and pen turning due to its unique blend of beauty, durability, and workability. This species, often simply referred to as Walnut, is prized for its rich, chocolate-brown heartwood that occasionally showcases darker streaks and intricate grain patterns, making each piece distinctively alluring. Aside from its aesthetic appeal, English Walnut possesses a favorable hardness and density that provides a robust foundation for these items, ensuring longevity and resistance to wear. Moreover, its workability allows artisans to shape and finish the wood with relative ease, facilitating the creation of ergonomic and visually striking knife handles and pens. These characteristics, combined with the wood's natural luster and ability to take on a fine finish, make English Walnut a highly sought-after material in the realms of fine woodworking and custom craftsmanship."Common Name(s): English WalnutScientific Name: Juglans regiaDistribution: Europe, Southwest AsiaTree Size: 100-130 ft (30-40 m) tall, 3-5 ft (1-1.5 m) trunk diameterAverage Dried Weight: 38 lbs/ft3 (610 kg/m3)Specific Gravity: 0.61 (12% MC)Janka Hardness: 1,010 lbf (4,490 N)Modulus of Rupture: 14,800 psi (102.0 MPa)Elastic Modulus: 1,680,000 psi (11.59 GPa)Crushing Strength: 7,580 psi (52.3 MPa)Shrinkage: Radial: 5.5% As always, I select and hand cut each blank from larger stock.
