Source of Magnolia for Saya

[DrHenley]

Can anyone tell me where to find magnolia wood in the U.S. for making sayas? I'm coming up empty on Google, Amazon, eBay, etc.

We have plenty of magnolia trees, hell, I grew up in the "Magnolia State", Mississippi

If anyone would know it would be Ben Greenberg, he's a member here and has a website selling wood.
