American Black Walnut is often referred to as ‘gunwood’ because it is the standard wood used for gunstocks, like shotgun handles and sporting rifle handles. It is also used for cabinetwork, high quality furniture, boat building, musical instruments, paneling, and veneers. It is a perfect wood for turning, molding, routing and carving as well.
It is a very popular wood not only for its versatility, but also for its beauty. Walnut has white sapwood, and its heartwood is a rich dark brown to purplish-black. It is normally straight grained, but in some cases it has wavy or curly grains.
