Description

The White Walnut that is great for carving!

Known as Walnut’s country cousin, Butternut is closely related to black walnut and is a joy to use. Due to a fungal disease, there is a rapid decline in the species and the tree is protected in Canada. The color ranges from light to medium tan with contrasting grain lines that form distinct patterns. The sapwood is a pale-yellow color. The grain is fairly coarse and has a natural luster.

Butternut is wonderful to work with hand and power tools, although its softness can lead to fuzzy surfaces left behind by planing and sanding. Make sure your tools are sharp or work through to finer sandpapers.

Be sure to check out our Carving section for a wider selection of Butternut carving options!

Easy carving out my gouge

Carved out a little tray and some spoons with my 24" peice and everything turned out very nice. The wood responds nice to a rasp and gouge

Butternut Slabs

Very well packaged and good quality. One piece has a questionable area, but sharp chisels should handle it, so the onus is on me! Very fast shipping and just what I needed. Check out the current issue of Fine Woodworking.

Ok

I had one piece that was beautiful but the second one toward the end was a big knot and not sure if I can use it for my project. On the positive side the quickness of fulfilling my order was amazing. I will try another order to see how it goes because of their fast delivery
