Description
Chakte Viga 2" x 2" x 12"Chakte Viga (Caesalpinia platyloba) is a moderately hard wood with a nice orange color that darkens with time and often is strongly iridescent. Despite its high density, Chakte Viga's often straight grain responds well to machining with both hand and power tools, though sometimes interlocked grain can result in tearout. It's fine, even texture with a good natural luster makes Chakte Viga an excellent stock for pool cues and furniture spindles.

Uncomfortable
Size: 7.5, Color: Orange Patent
These would have been perfect, but the toe separator is way too hard. I tried it on and it was painful before even walking. I expected better quality from Steve Madden 😕
