snakewood scales

Snakewood :

Snakewood, known for its dramatic, snake-like patterns, is highly prized for crafting unique knife handles. This exotic wood is not just visually captivating but also renowned for its remarkable density and resilience, qualities owing to the slow growth of the Brosimum guianense trees in the dense, tropical forests they inhabit.

These trees develop intricate, winding patterns, a testament to their survival in challenging, competitive environments. This prolonged growth process imbues the wood with a hardness that rivals many other exotic wood types globally.

The striking patterns, which mimic the scales of a snake, differ from tree to tree, making each snakewood handle a natural masterpiece, a direct gift from the untamed wilds of the forests it originates from.
