Four different wood ID for you guys!

[RunNGun17]

Here are a few pics of some wood I just pick up. I'm new to wood identification so just looking for some help. Thanks guys.

Four different pieces of wood, not sure what they are but they are all heavy, my back is tired!

These two pics are from the same tree

not sure but the first one look like a maple....4/5 are honey locust... 6 is black walnut...

5, the bark looks very much like honey locust, but 4, the red inner wood isn't anything like my honey locust score looked like. My hl had uniform color throughout. Does it have any of the tell tale 3" long thorns?

Pic 3 looks like a red maple that had been tapped for maple sugaring. All of the dark spots are old tap holes or stains from them.

All looks like potential firewood to me....

Thanks guys, my thoughts were this, and it was from quick simple research on google.

I wasn't sure what any of them were except for the last pic, to me it looked like all the hard maple pics I saw.

4 and 5 are the same piece and i would bet money they are honey locust...id go so far to bet they are the thornless variety. I just cut one up this summer.... #6 should be easy to tell if its walnut or not, but judging from the bark and heart wood I think it is, cut one a few of those this spring...smell it. that should tell you if it is or not

4/5 as a kid we had a 'honey locust' tree that I spent many of my summers days climbing in it. In the fall it never did have any of the usual seed pods. But in late Spring it sure had some good Mulberries,

4/5 is Mulberry.

what re we talking about here Honey locust or Muleberry?

 

[Coldfront]

They look fresh, don't they have any leaves? That would be the best sure fire way to id them.

...and I still think 6 is young black walnut.... use your sniffer, if its walnut it will smell just like a walnut.

I am sure it is gum, walnut is chocolate brown all the way through.

Wrong bark, wrong color, wrong ID.

If that log is 10"+ I would say you are prolly right... but ive cut walnut around the 6-8" mark that showed hardly any heart wood. I think the amount of heart wood really depends on growing conditions
