Default Osage orange

A good friend of mine needs a piece of osage orange, maybe 3" to 4" diameter and two feet long. Be best if dry, but green would work. Anybody have access to a chunk let me know and I'll pay and for shipping.

2 ft. is not very much. Do you mind if I inquire as to what usuage it would be put? Possible I can lay hands on. Native wood here more commonly known as Bois d"arc. Pronunced Bodark

A good friend of mine makes custom made knives and I try to help him get new wood material to try in his handles. He ask about osage orange, and I don't think I have ever seen any around here.
Here is his website with some knives he made.

I was out riding the Harley yesterday and I saw those giant Osage Orange balls falling and hitting the rd and I just hoped they didn't hit me.Those things are the size of Grape fruit.
