Besides Black Walnut what wood has a dark heartwood? I have some that was dropped off to me that I really don't know what it is, but I know it is not Black Walnut. Very dark heartwood with the outer ring very light?

Apple, some hickory.
Vic and I picked up some apple last night- awesome wood. I'll be saving it to trade for smoked animals.

Is it freshly cut? Does it split easy or is it stringy? Dark orange, dark tan or dark brown? What does the bark look like?

. . . yeah I suppose someone had to add in the "ash" suggestion. 
Around this neck of the woods I mostly see apple with the dark heartwood . . . unless the tree is starting to rot.
