Harvested near Philadelphia
Four photos: rough cut face; partially planed face; end grain; and edges with and without bark.
Feels medium dense. Planes very smooth. Attractive grain. 4/4.
Thanks

No pics...
Edit. I agree with the cherry. Bark gives it away

To the OP, do you have those photos on your computer? If so, edit your post and select "full edit". Then, look right above where the "post reply", "preview post", and "save as draft" buttons are. You'll see the function where you can attach files. Always works for me. Not sure what happened, but I'm not seeing any photos in your post right now either.

Black cherry I think.

Looks like fruit cherry, but also could be plum.

My first guess was American Cherry. Still going with that, but the planed areas look VERY light...the heartwood areas almost look like most Cherry sapwood that I've seen. Here's a page with TONS of Cherry pics:

I agree with the consensus, it's cherry.
