The difference between the iron wood and the iron knife is only one word, and the word "knife" is quite close to the word "force". Therefore, the two kinds of trees that seem to be implicated are inextricably intertwined. Redwood fans have a confused mind. Many people confuse "iron knife" with "iron wood" and mistakenly think that "ironwood" and "iron knife" are the same kind of wood, just because the typo has two names. However, the mahogany experts told reporters that "Tie Limu" ​​and "Iron Knife" are not only eight, but the two are essentially different. Below, experts teach you how to identify ironwood and iron knives.
1. Ironwood - Garcinia Cambogia, Trichoderma (non-redwood)
Ironwood, also known as iron plow
Tiemu is commonly known as: iron pear wood, iron chestnut wood, iron rib wood, Gemu, water agarwood, etc., and is currently not within the 34 species of the five species of the genus . However, Tiemu wood has a high specific gravity and high hardness. It is a rare “heavy wood†mainly distributed in tropical Asia, such as India, Vietnam, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Central South Peninsula, Yunnan, Guangxi, and Guangdong. It is also cultivated in other places. Teli wood can be subdivided into two types: thick wire iron wood and fine wire iron wood. Thick wire iron wood is the main material of furniture. The color of the material is dark brown, the texture is thick and long, the length of brown eye is different, and the distribution is even. Some are skein-like.
The color of the fine iron wood is reddish-brown, the texture is natural and beautiful, a little close to the wenge wood, the hand feels smooth, and the fermented wood furniture is similar to the mahogany furniture, but it is easy to find out the difference between it and the chicken wing wood. Wood grain is thicker and the texture is straight.
Compared with other mahogany, the wood price of the iron wood is slightly lower, and there are large materials. Therefore, the craftsmen used in the Ming and Qing Dynasties were looser and used to make large pieces of furniture. With the growing shortage of mahogany wood, Tieli wood, as a famous precious hardwood species, has become increasingly popular in the raw material market and has become a major material for the production of high-grade solid wood furniture. The pods contain tannins and can be extracted from tannins. The lac insects can be stocked on the branches to produce shellac.

The wood grain of the iron knife wood is fine, the texture is ring-shaped, the heartwood material is distinctly different, the sapwood is yellowish white or white, the heartwood is dark red or purple brown, and the black is exposed in the atmosphere, also known as ebony.

The wood of the iron knives is hard and heavy, the processing is not easy, it is difficult to saw and difficult to plan, and the nails are difficult to nail. It is really difficult to get into the axe, so it is called the iron knives, for building and making tools, furniture, musical instruments and other good materials. .
