The Janka hardness scale measures the resistance of a wood species to wear and denting. However, the blackthorn (Prunus spinosa) is not commonly listed on the Janka hardness scale due to its limited use in commercial applications. In general, blackthorn is known to be a very hard and dense wood, similar to other fruitwoods like cherry and plum, which typically have Janka hardness values ranging from 950 to 1200 pounds-force.
