Millittia Stuhlmannii
Also known as Panga-Panga and Partridgewood, is a high density wood originary from Mozambique, southern Tanzania and eastern Zimbabwe.
Hard and heavy (> 800 Kg / m3 when dried) has good resistance to bending and to shock being very durable.
Difficult to work because of its hardness, when sawing it may bind to blades and burn; it tends to split, so pre-drilling is highly recommended - HSS drills and tools should be used.
