Anyone ever burn Chinese scholar tree?

Anyone ever burn Chinese scholar tree? Lots in my city

Never heard of it. Does it have another name? Do you have any pictures of one? OOPs! it may be good wood! I just found this:

Used to make the strong, springy curved "enju wood" handle used on the traditional Japanese woodworking adze, called the chouna

Also called Japanese Pagoda Tree, Sophora japonica. Never burned it, but it's in the pea family and others in that family (e.g. locusts) make good burning.

If it's related to locust, I'd definately be trying it out, and if it turns out to impress me, I'd be getting all I could!

I wouldn't say anything with "pea pods" is great firewood
Mimosa has pods and isn't much more than poplar.

very true indeed. Thats why we need a test of this chinese scholar wood.......

That's one way to take care of that communist country. Little savage in your means though...

From the gist of the web searches
It appears to be hard and and possibly smelly and rough on chains so me thinks it is a "good wood"

That's what I'm thinking.....if they use of over in Asia to make adze handles, I'd be guessing its a pretty strong and dense wood.
