Like many Brazilian exotics, Santos Mahogany offers not only a beautiful visual appearance but astounding durability as well. With a Janka rating of 2,200, Santos Mahogany is 18% harder than Hickory, the hardest of North American hardwoods. For longevity and amazing looks, Santos Mahogany is tough to beat.
