Help IDing Blank

[Band Saw Box]

I have some blanks that I need some help IDing. They were sent to me by Mike (mikepenturningz) a long with some others. I had been talking with him about Redwood burl but I don't know for sure if there are Redwood. Here are some photos of the blank. I'm sure someone know what kind of wood it is.

Redwood lace burl...just a guess.

I will second what Jim said.

Is it soft --- If Yes, Redwood is likely

I'd guess Redwood burl....I have a bunch just like it.

I just turned some simulated cigars using the exact same blank - Redwood Lace Burl. They turned out beautiful!

 

[mrmartyking]

My guess is Maidou burl. It is also soft.
