I have a local veneer company that bought a large koa log quite a few years ago then resawed it in to 8/4 slabs. They had a customer that wanted it sliced into veneer but the deal fell through. The entire log was stickered and has sat for several years. I'd say the log is a little over 8' long and the widest slab is about 3'. Based on what I've seen online for backs, it would be considered plain with no figure. I wondered what is a reasonable rate for plain koa per BF. I've seen such a wide range that I can't get a grasp on what to offer on a slab. They say they'll sell the whole log for $10,000 but I don't want the whole log but would take a nice sized slab if the price is right.
