This was outstanding wood to work with...as it cuts great plus the smell was unreal great. It is sandalwood, and the weapons are camphor. The chinese man is 10" by 5". My own design... This is one wood if you get a chance is worth your time, you will love the smell if anything. smile Di

Very cool, I have a few chunks of sandal wood I took home from my time in India. They make an ice cream with the essence of sandal wood its god offal but it smells nice.

Beautifully done carving, Di. Sandalwood has a great fragrance and really nice grain. Thanks for sharing.
