Serpent wood handle

Serpent wood (Marmoroxylon racemosum) is a precious wood endemic to the Guyanese forest. The handle is composed of large, deep yellow fibres, marbled with large irregular brown spots reminiscent of a snake's scales.
This precious and rare wood grows exclusively in primary forests.This wood is hard and heavy. Its grains are irregularly spaced and remind the snake skin. It should not be confused with the English term of Snakewood or Letterwood called Amourette in French.
