Native to Central America, Mexico, and the West Indies, the Bocote tree grows to maximum height of 100 ft. This is a very heavy hard wood, but is relatively easy to work with and is quite resistant to marring and decay. Bocote is often used in upscale flooring and cabinetry. Products such as pool cues, smoking pipes, and custom knife handles are also made from this exotic wood.
