Uses
- Ho wood essential oil is mainly used in the perfume/fragrance industry, often as a substitute for rosewood oil. In addition to this, Ho wood was traditionally used for handles of Japanese knives and swords because it is soft and hence does not scratch the delicate blades. Most often, today, Ho wood is used for ornamental design in household furniture. As it is soft, it is easy to carve ornamental designs. It is very much similar to rosewood, except for the fact that it has been obtained from a much renewable source.
