Seasoned cord of Yew wanted in Devon

[Bewarethemoon]

As the title states I'm looking for a small amount of Yew to whittle a set of Silky handles.

 

Ideally a cord length roughly 6 inches in diameter should fit the bill I imagine?

 

I'm not too sure how realistic this request is as I'm learning how desirable Yew is in the wood craft world.

 

Any help or advice is much appreciated.

 

Thanks. Daniel.

I have quite a bit (about a Land Rover load), approx 4 years old and most of it 4'/5' long x 2"/4" dia.

Where are you situated? I think one length of a 4" diameter could be suitable for whittling Silky handles?

Wolverhampton, I will be in Taunton some time within the next two weeks or I could post a section down for you if you cannot get fixed up locally.

 

I dont want anything for it.

I might have some Yew of suitable size, I'll check next week....I have some really nice laburnum which is gorgeous when turned so should make nice handles....I'm Gloucestershire if your interested I'm sure we could sort something!

:lol:I always thought a cord of wood was 128 cubic feet, seems like a lot of wood for a saw handle

You should see the size of the saw:biggrin:
