Description
Burdekin Plum Handle Block – 150 × 50 × 30 mm
Add warm, reddish-brown character to your next knife handle with a natural Burdekin Plum timber block. Also known as Tulip Plum, this hardwood typically has a fine, close texture and straight grain, with darker bands that can add contrast to the finished piece.
This solid block gives you material to shape a hidden-tang handle, tool handle or small craft component. Plan your layout to suit your blade and allow for shaping and finishing.
Timber character & finishing
Burdekin Plum accepts stain and polish well, giving you options to bring out its natural colour and grain. Shape and sand the blank to your design, then apply a suitable timber-handle finish.
