Ki Symbol Making a bokken- wood types

Hi

I have a Holme Oak which we are going to thin out, and I'd like to use a branch to make a bokken.

Does anyone know if this wood is OK to use (have been told it's much denser & heavier than oak), and also how long the wood needs to be aged for after cutting?

Thanks,

- Angela
