Picked this up today, guy said it was walnut. I told him when I got there, that it was not walnut. What say you? Somewhat stringy. Southern Michigan wood.
He may be right. It looks much like the not highly valuable English walnut I got from my new best friend at the tree service cutting a 1/2 mile down the road last year. That's what he said it was anyway and even mentioned it was cut because of all of the walnuts it dropped every year.
