This looks nothing like the locust that we cut on a regular basis. Not just the lack of those thorns but the bark itself is much different.

The locust we cut has thorns but it's like thorns on a rose bush or briar bush. I would be interested to know if that is even a similar species or just two trees that happen to have the same name.
 
black locust , honey locust, subvarients of honey locust, African locust, one that starts with a M and the Cabo? not really a locust but close cousin.
