Indian Rosewood so-called, is almost as heavy as lignum vitae and not much softer from what I have seen and handled. One has to remember that there are hundreds of species sometimes lumped into such catch-all names. The market doesn't really care as long as the price is right and the physical properties are close enough. Hence presumably the lack of interest in greater exactitude.

The Southern Cross repros look good in the photos; not cheap though!
