A customer has requested that I use lignum vitae for handle scales. He wants three folders for family heirlooms and the significance of the wood is that it’s taken from a log of lignum vitae which marked the entrance to his grandfather’s property years ago.
I am reading reports that this wood has serious issues with cracks over time. I’m hoping that you gents might have experience with this wood. Is cracking a foregone conclusion or is this wood suitable for folder scales?
