I don't see the picture, so going by the color of "this" I would have to say Black .

I have to ask myself, why? Why do I click on a thread like this and read all 10 pages of it? Must be like watching a race just waiting to see the crash...

Because you've never been in a thread that lasted this long without crashing it .

Well that's Good, you're more LIKELY to push a Chevy than a FORD, so you won't be Disappointed

Doug

Except when you start pushing and realize you could have gotten a ford with a heated tailgate .

A chainsaw shop will likely help you with more informed advise.

Your summary looked good except this part, I don't need to make a joke about that, as I find it funny .

Yes sir, I like my locust black, and my coffee with hazelnut creamer, Steve knows .
We have a lot of Black here, but I see the honey a bit.
Cut some cookies the other day and grabbed a little I had cut last summer off the ground. This particular stick had been half covered with dirt when I cut it up last summer was laying like that for probably 22 yrs when they built this place and hardly any rot, gotta like burning locust for firewood .

The giving a dam about that is a ship that sailed about 20 silly posts back.....
