Clearing out stuff I had saved for a rainy day, well it's been raining for ages and I still haven't used it. I need the space in the garage.
Sorting through some ~3' lengths of 2x7[ish] 'pine' when I moved one piece that seemed rather heavy. Looked oily-dirty as if I had used it when I used to look after my vehicle myself.

I was going to sling it when I thought again and decided to have a bit of a plane to see what it was;

The colouring is a little like Sapele but there aren't any of the stripes I've seen before. The grain doesn't look interlocked like Iroko.
Planes beautifully.
Any ideas?
Thanks for looking.

Not obeche-thats straw coloured.Iroko is my guess and a larger image would be helpful to confirm that.
