This beautiful dark wood is admired by woodworkers for its abundance of flowing and often swirling grain patterns and dark color. The wood is dense enough to be used for flooring and furniture, but not so hard as to be difficult to work with hand tools.
This walnut lumber is specified with 90% heartwood on the face, 70% heartwood on the back. For help in dealing with pale colored sapwood, see our blog "3 Great Ways to Hide Sapwood in Walnut".

[+] What if I need specific sizes? You'll have to cut your own pieces to size. Hardwood lumber is sold as a bulk raw product, which means that our stacks of lumber have a big variety of sizes most often from 4" up to 12" wide, and 6' to 16' long.
- Only some unusual exotic woods are narrower than 4" and under 6' long. This is clearly stated when that's the case, everything else is larger.
- We always ship the longest boards possible, and rarely ship boards less than 48" long unless you request shorter. The longest we can ship by UPS is 96" (that's 8').
For general fine woodworking, the various widths and lengths meet the needs and desires of woodworkers building furniture, cabinetry, and fine woodwork. But we do understand that certain projects have some requirements, and we're happy to help you out.
Here's how we can help you get the sizes you need:
- We can hand-select material that will yeild what you need. Type your needs into the "Selection" field right above the Add to Cart button above when you place your order. 4 things to know about size requests
- We can do some custom milling or cutting. Please call or email to talk about your needs.
- Thickness: 1-13/16'' thick, surfaced smooth two sides (8/4 S2S)

- Lengths: Up to 8'. Longer lengths may be available for local pick up or truck freight shipment. Contact us to verify.

    8/4 walnut, 4.6.2012

    minor let down, 2.21.2012

Reviewer: Jay D'Eloia (East Northport, NY)

The piece of wood I received was very well packaged and delivered exactly as expected and on time. There is one flaw in the board that will reduce the overall amount of usability. There is a small circular knot about 6 inches from one end that actually is an open hole almost clear through the board. Other than that I am very pleased with the selection that was made on my behalf.

I live in a remote area, so ordering on-line is the best way for me to obtain wood. First order I got with WWS, I am very satisfied. Will continue to use this company

    Almost great, 11.10.2011

Reviewer: BCF (Baton Rouge, LA)

It was a fine hunk of wood at first glance. Then I turned it over and noticed that about 5 inches of area at one end was not fully planed flat. There was a full section there that was thinner than the entire piece otherwise. After realizing that this was not going to affect my project and I started getting in to cutting down the pieces I needed, I also noticed that the same end had apparently been placed in a planar on both sides as it had a clear dip on the top and bottom while the rest of the surfaces were planed nice and flat. It was still a beautiful piece of wood but it was just not as exact as I would have hoped for.

    Great Looking Lumber, 12.15.2010

The Black Walnut lumber provided by the Woodworkers Source exceeded all of my expectations. Had I had known the lumber would be as attractive as it is, I would have designed my mantle differently.
