Honey Locust

locust is a little-used, but beautiful hardwood. It has only some of the excellent
rot-resistant qualities of the better known (at least here in New England) black
locust, but it is much easier to work, and it's color is more subdued and richer.
I use its endgrain in Kings Crown and Striped Quilt cutting boards, and I used
the face grain to make the "leaves" in the inlay banding around the
Dalbergia Garden tulip panel.
