A Man’s bowl.

A Man’s bowl.

Black locust 10.25 x 5” homemade wood finish.
This will make a good popcorn bowl.
If I didn't know any better I would say that it looks like osage orange (or maybe mulberry or black locust). I don't see any obvious medullary rays which are a prominent feature of red oak. Also, when viewing the end grain red oak has large open pores which I think would be noticeable.

You're correct, my mistake. It is Black Locust. Thank you for noticing.
