It’s pretty soft for a rosewood. I can buy it but I’ve never had anyone ask for it. It’s generally used in inexpensive Asian made furniture.European maple is a different hardness etc compared to Canadian rock maple, so I looked for an alternative material.
Thoughts on this type of wood? Is this a lesser kind of rosewood? Dalbergia Sissoo trees from South Asia.
In the link janka hardness and more data are specified.
A supplier for kitchen stuff here offers this tray, 400x300x38mm for a very friendly price, it would be a good size for my ac distribution block.

I think you’re correct , it’s a very inexpensive grade of rosewood. Plantation grown exotic woods generally are very light weight and not as strong as old growth or wild grown hardwoods.
