Snakewood lumber is used for specialty woodworking applications where highly figured grain and dense hardwood are valued.

Depending on the dimensions and characteristics of each board, applications include:

• Knife Making: Snakewood knife scales, knife handle material, and custom knife components
• Musical Instruments: Material for violin bows, fingerboards, bridges, guitar components, and decorative details.
• Duck Calls & Hunting Calls: Custom duck call blanks, game call blanks, and turned call bodies.
• Fine Woodworking: Marquetry, wood inlays, veneers, and decorative accents.
• Woodturning: Pen blanks, turned handles, pool cue components, and other specialty turned items.
• Custom Woodworking: Resawn lumber for specialized components and projects requiring custom dimensions.

Buying Snakewood lumber in board form gives makers flexibility when preparing material for specific projects.

Flexible Stock Dimensions: Choose boards with thicknesses, widths, and lengths suited to your intended application.

Custom Resawing: Cut suitable boards into thinner stock and custom-sized components.

Material Planning: Plan cuts around each board’s dimensions, grain pattern, and usable sections.

Preparation Flexibility: Decide how to break down the lumber according to your design and required dimensions.

Multiple Applications: Prepare suitable material for knife handles, musical instrument components, duck calls, hunting calls, woodturning, and fine woodworking.

Reduced Offcuts: Thoughtful cutting plans can help make better use of the available wood.
