No purple
I was excited to finally see some purple heart in person and to use it to make a bow handle, however when it arrived the block of wood was completely brown. Not even a tinge of color after I sanded it and finished it with tung oil. It was a disappointment.

Ah! Sorry about that, Michael. The purple color in purple heart comes from oxidization. Fresh cut and worked purple heart will be brown. Give it some sunshine, in a day you'll notice a difference as the purple color comes back.

Purple Heart
The pic on your web page made it look a lot more purple. The piece I received was not purple at all. I use the wood for making knife handles, they work perfectly. My daughter wants a purple handle on hers, not sure what or where I will find any purple LOL. I really love the Leapord wood and will be ording several more in about 2 weeks. All the other wood I have ordered from you is just wonderful, perfect. Thank you very much.
