Osage Orange is VERY hard, super dense. It starts out a vivid yellow color when cut and mellows to a chocolate brown. VERY HEAVY.

Maybe it would make good wood to make things like key holders. I came home last night and a VERY LARGE limb on one of my hedge trees had broken off. Hedge (or Osage Orange) is so hard I have never seen large limbs break off from storms. It wasn't storming yesterday anyway. I got to looking at it and I think lightning may have struck the tree. Some of the limbs look blackened. I don't really have a question, just thought it was interesting. Now I have get the chain saws out this weekend and cut it up. And make sure you have a sharp chain!
