Following the Battle of Port Republic, the final battle of Gen. Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson’s successful Shenandoah Valley Campaign, Jackson and his men camped near Weyers Cave between the Middle and South Rivers. On June 14, 1862, he and his chief of staff Rev. Robert L. Dabney held a camp prayer service under the canopy of several large trees.

Over time this 350-year-old oak tree stood proudly on the edge of a farm field, located near Mt. Meridian in Augusta County, Grottoes, Virginia. This tree is believed to have been among those shade trees. In Shenandoah Valley legends, this giant oak became known as the “Stonewall Jackson Prayer Tree”.

The disease weakened ancient oak was felled by high winds on May 27, 2011. The farmland and tree were owned by the Wilkerson family, and they knew the story of the old oak and had been careful to preserve it.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

The Studebaker was an American wagon and automobile manufacturer based in South Bend, IN. Founded in 1852 as the Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Co., the firm was originally a producer of wagons, buggies, carriages and harnesses.

Studebaker entered the automotive business under the name "Studebaker Automobile Company" in 1902 with electric vehicles and in 1904 with gasoline vehicles. The first gasoline automobiles to be fully manufactured by Studebaker were marketed in August 1912. Over the next 50 years, the company established a reputation for good quality and reliability.

In August 1924, the Studebaker Light Six was renamed the Studebaker Standard Six. While in production from 1924 to 1927, Standard Six represented Studebaker's least expensive model. The car was available in a full array of body styles throughout its production.

After WWII, postwar cashflow problems plagued the Studebaker Corporation, and the South Bend plant ceased production on December 20, 1963, and the Canadian assembly line on March 17, 1966. By November 1967, Studebaker was defunct.

These blanks are made from the hickory wooden wheel spokes of the 1924 Studebaker Standard Six. The wood is certified and distributed by Hardin Penworks, LLC. This material is guaranteed to be 100% Authentic.

JB Royal SUNRISE YELLOW resin blanks with suspended shredded resin cut-offs from the over-pour of other Alumilite and JB Royal resin blocks. The suspended material is a wild variety of mixes to form a kaleidoscope of colors.

Blank Sizes:

• 5" Long Blank  measures a minimum of 3/4" square
• 9" Kitless Blank measures 3/4" round
• 2-1/2" Stopper Blank  measures 1-1/2" round
• 5" Call Blank measures 1-1/2" round

You may find this to be opaque. We recommend back painting the blank after drilling. Using different colors for back painting will yield wildly different effects and results.

As with any suspended material blanks, there is the likely hood of tiny bubbles. These bubbles can easily be remedied with CA (cyanoacrylate) glue.

Texas Ebony Wood Pen Blanks - Premium Exotic Hardwood

Product Specifications

Blank Sizes: Each pen blank is a minimum of 5" long × 3/4" × 3/4" square.

Material: Genuine Texas Ebony (Ebenopsis ebano) — an extremely dense, exotic Southwestern hardwood.

Material Story

These premium pen blanks are crafted from **Texas Ebony**, one of the hardest and most striking native woods in North America. Known for its deep, rich coloration ranging from dark reddish-brown to nearly jet black, Texas Ebony delivers a luxurious, high-contrast appearance with excellent natural luster.

This exceptionally dense hardwood features a fine, uniform texture and can display beautiful grain patterns — from subtle straight grain to more irregular and wild figuring. Despite its extreme hardness, it turns superbly well and takes a glass-like polish, resulting in elegant, durable, and highly professional finished pens.

Each blank is carefully selected for color and quality, offering woodturners a rare opportunity to work with a true heavyweight exotic that stands out in any collection.

About Texas Ebony Wood

Texas Ebony (Ebenopsis ebano), also known as Blackbead Ebony, is a premium exotic hardwood native to southern Texas and eastern Mexico. It grows as a small to medium-sized tree in arid and semi-arid regions, producing some of the densest and hardest wood found in North America.

With a Janka hardness rating of approximately **2,820 lbf**, Texas Ebony is significantly harder than most domestic woods and many exotics. Its heartwood is a deep reddish-brown to nearly black, often with subtle lighter streaks, while the sapwood is pale yellow. The wood has a fine, uniform texture and excellent natural luster that enhances beautifully when finished.

Highly prized for its durability, rot resistance, and stunning appearance, Texas Ebony is a favorite for knife handles, turned objects, inlays, and fine pens. It machines and turns well with sharp tools and rewards the craftsman with an outstanding, high-polish finish.

Working with Texas Ebony means creating with a true regional treasure — a dense, dark, and sophisticated hardwood that produces timeless, heirloom-quality pieces.

On On September 19, 1864, Major General Phillip Sheridan led the VI and XIX Corps in an advance toward Winchester along the Berryville Pike, crossing Opequon Creek east of the town. The Union's initial progress was slowed, allowing Major General Jubal Early to gather his forces to confront the main assault. Both seasoned Union and Confederate divisions engaged fiercely for hours. Eventually, Early's Confederate forces were pushed back toward Winchester, consolidating their defenses around the northern outskirts of the town. In the late afternoon, the VIII Corps and Union cavalry successfully flanked the Confederate left, prompting Early to order a general retreat. This Union triumph marked the beginning of a series of defeats for Early's army in the Shenandoah Valley, from which it would not recover. The Battle of Winchester was notable as the largest and most costly engagement in the region during that time.

The Third Battle of Winchester, also known as the Battle of Opequon or Battle of Opequon Creek, was an American Civil War battle fought near Winchester, Virginia, on September 19, 1864. Union Army Major General Philip Sheridan defeated Confederate Army Lieutenant General Jubal Early in one of the largest, bloodiest, and most important battles in the Shenandoah Valley. Among the 5,000 Union casualties were one general killed and three wounded. The casualty rate for the Confederates was high: about 4,000 of 15,500. Two Confederate generals were killed and four were wounded.
