Any woodworkers know what species of wood was used? 'Hinoki' is a widely used Japanese cypress but the English articles all say it's a 'honoki' magnolia?

- Loughla 2y agoIt's a magnolia. Magnolia hypoleuca or I think it's also called Japanese large-leaf magnolia. I've used it for knife handles. It's light and strong, so that makes sense for this use case.
