Title: Ipe ( Brazilian Walnut )
Post by: ccleroy on June 29, 2012, 11:23:47 PM

A buddy sent this wood to me a few weeks ago to build a call for him. It is Ipe aka Brazilian Walnut and this piece came off the boardwalk at Atlantic City. Beautiful Wood, real heavy and extremely hard.....makes a killer copper call. Also had a piece of Gaboon Ebony laying around in the shop so I made him a nice striker to match the call as well. Hope you like it WM.
