5-Ply Shina
(3/8" thick, mahogany core)
5-Ply has an outer veneer of shina and a seraya (mahogany) core. Seraya is still easy to carve. It has a distinct straight grain that encourages the knife to cut straight lines when cutting with the grain. However it can be more difficult to cut across the grain compared to All Shina.
5-Ply Shina is 3/8" thick, and can be cut on both sides.
(Please be aware that if you are printing on an etching press, carved areas
on the bottom of the block may show up as lighter areas when you print the top because of the
high pressure. We have not heard of anyone having this problem when printing with a baren or on a letterpress.)
