If your need is English Walnut, I have about 30 full stock Fowler length blanks. All are stump cut from very old trees. Dense and fine grained.

I've been very happy with purchases from Allen Martin & Ron Scott. Good prices, quickly shipped out, and easy all the way around. Plus they are both long term members here who don't hide their identity, which soothes my suspicious (ex-lawyer) nature. I don't send money to anonymous people. :D I've also been happy with wood from Nathan at Harrison's who I usually see at shows.
Good luck in your search,
Carl
