    Never worked with any of those but I believe holm oak is similar to a live oak which I have worked with. The heart in particular is very, very hard and dense. It resists water quite well. I coated it with gunstock wax. It is hard to work with though because of how hard it is.

    This Christensen is scaled with live oak scales I made. The wood is quite attractive. That is its natural color.
