Can anyone ID this wood? I picked it up from a pile at the tree service, it was a fairly new cut I but didn't get a chance to ask him what it was. It feels very heavy /dense, despite the wide spaced rings, and has a VERY strong acidic smell, similar to what I smell from fresh honey locust but much stronger.
The last picture is some "pear" from the same company. I was picking through the pile when one of the driver's came over and asked if I wanted a few chunks. He told me what type of pear it was but I forgot what he said; I do remember him saying it's one of the best woods to burn, and based on the weight (easily as dense as locust), I believe him. I admit I'm relatively new to the firewood game, but I just love the color of this wood, I've never seen anying like it.
