I have written about Bloodwood<\/a> in the past, including my first experience with making Bloodwood bowls<\/a>.<\/p>\n I can’t claim that Bloodwood is one of my all time favorite woods since it is splintery and it does not cut as cleanly as I would like, requiring more sanding that I am fond of, but it was an interesting experience that I am glad I had the chance to complete. The dark red color of Bloodwood is its primary appeal, but as is true of most all highly colored tropical hardwoods, this color will eventually fade to a boring brown with time, so enjoy that color while you can.<\/p>\n
