African Blackwood/Mpingo [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_Blackwood (Dalbergia melanoxylon)] is an almost pitch black wood with a bright yellow outer layer, and has the highest density of all woods. This makes it extremely hard and durable, but also quite tricky to work with. | African Blackwood/Mpingo [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/African_Blackwood (Dalbergia melanoxylon)] is an almost pitch black wood with a bright yellow outer layer, and has the highest density of all woods.
