Greenheart is another name that is used for more than one species. Check
to be sure what you're getting. I have even heard ipe called greenheart.
Anyway, the main species I think is ocotea rodiaei. I have never worked
with it, so I can't compare it to cocobolo, but the specs on the FPL
website are impressive. Looks like it would make great outdoor furniture,
among other things.



Thanks Jim, I am curious because it is the other choice, other than cocobolo,
for chisel handles from Harris tools, and those are sockets. Costa Rica.
