"Jatoba, scientifically known as Hymenaea courbaril, and commonly referred to as Brazilian Cherry, is an excellent choice for crafting knife scales and pen turning due to its impressive physical properties. This dense and durable hardwood possesses a high resistance to wear and tear, making it ideal for handling frequent use and maintaining a polished appearance over time. Its rich, deep red color and fine grain not only enhance the aesthetic appeal of finished products but also allow for a smooth finish that highlights the natural beauty of the wood. The strength and stability of Jatoba ensure that it can withstand the intricate machining and shaping required in knife and pen crafting, making it a favored material among woodworkers and artisans."
