I agree with Fox, but will add, I've made a few guns with Teak/Ipe (using the Ipe as the center for enclosed track) laminates and they are arrows, of course they got some carbon snuck in, also these modern day poxies are just amazing, the wood will break before the bond...as for Cumaru-Ipe I always thought they were the same, the fact that the Cumaru floats might just be that it is outer layer vs the denser inner layer coming off the tree...and Sepele (also called Ribbon Mahagony) as I know it is a Mahogany (just prettier) so it and of itself holds well to water
