Brazilian rosewood question.

[LosOsosCues]

I have two blanks of Brazilian rosewood. Normally I core all my cues with purpleheart and use purpleheart for the handle. I won’t be Coring these forearms of course. My question is what wood would you use for the handle? I’ve never used Brazilian so just not sure what to use.

It's a relatively light rosewood.

curious as to what the concern would be for handle material. why would you be apprehensive?

Turn the forearm and handle piece down and weigh them, then you can decide then what would look best and give the weight you want.
