It does resemble black locust. And like Slummy, I have planted hundreds if not thousands of them as fence posts, sawed out of groves on the farm.
But I have not seen a black locust free of bore holes in over forty years.
That alone would disqualify the piece as locust to me. Perhaps locust borers refuse to live in Jersey.

I searched the world over and found pics aplenty of non-smooth looking black locust logs as well as straightish osage orange logs that I am going with the majority for once... LOL Pretty groovy. I have some black locust at home incorporated into my loading "desk" and will try it when I get a chance with a correct light. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/MT0mQGhs/images-6.jpg)

Well, I would never have guessed osage orange would grow in NJ, but apparently from what I was able to find it does.
That changes my thinking a bit as to what those logs are.
