Burl Idenification help please

[splinter99]

I bought a slab of this a year ago, Turned some and didnt really care for it..Tried it again and now I like it (different finish technique) It reminds me of camo..like mossy oak or real tree

I think it may be Buckeye Burl but im not sure

 

[Dario]

It is buckeye

 

[NavyDiver]

I'm not sure about identifying the wood, but it sure makes some pretty pens!

 

[ilikewood]

It does look like Buckeye.

 

[Pikebite]

Buckeye for me too. And I like the pens.

 

[johncrane]

Harold,very nice work,i have to agree with the rest,buckeye.

 

[wudnhed]

Very pretty, Harold! I agree with the consensus, Buckeye[]

Burl is neat, I just got my first piece and seeing your find work I can't wait to turn the pen

 

[jjenk02]

I don't know what it is (I'm wood ID challenged), but it sure makes a pretty pen[:I]

 

[LostintheWoods]

I'm with the rest, its buckeye--and you turned it into a couple of very nice pens!

 

[chigdon]

Buckeye!

Not sure about the buckeye, seems like the wrong color to me.
I would go with a big leaf maple burl. Just a shot.

Buckeye ranges in color from light beige to almost black, bluish-gray.

I am 99.99% sure it is buckeye.

I like buckeye burl, enven though I went to UofM.
