Colour and Workability
Walnut hardwood is a favorite among carvers not only because of its durability, but also because of the striking difference in colour between heartwood and sapwood. Walnut is undoubtedly one of the most popular wood species in North America, as it’s easy to be amazed by the intricate grain structure, rich aroma, and wide range of colours it provides.
Recommended Finish
Done carving and ready to finish? Our Livos Natural Oil Finish works wonders for brushing on, or dipping more intricate pieces when ensuring complete coverage for all nooks and crannies. This finish can be applied in multiple coats without sanding your delicate carving, and provides exceptional shine and protection.
If you’re carving something for use with food - such as a spoon or other utensil - we recommend our all-natural Honey Bee’s Natural Wood Cream.

Black Walnut Carving Block - 2" x 2" x 6" (Set of 9)
It is exactly what I expected! 100% satisfaction! Wood was purchased for a small carving project and I fully anticipate very nice results.
My expectations were "receive wood" and I received wood
Great Walnut book. Will order again. Tx
Super colour, straight grain, no knots. Fantastic for the projects I had in mind.
Contacted KJP and they not only helped me choose the type of wood that I needed for my project, but also cut it to the size I needed as I didn't have the tools to cut it myself. Great company, great to communicate with, and they know their stuff! Would highly recommend.
Have sand down more or run them through a planer to get rid of the rough edge of the mill, but were what I expected. The other part of the order was excellent, I'll be ordering more if this stuff sells
