#1 wife FINALLY told me that there was something she wanted... a cutting board (even though some years ago she told me she did NOT want a wooden cutting board.... go figure).. Anyway, I running with it for now.
Presently, I have a supply of Walnut, Ash, a little bit of Cherry, and Mesquite and Pistachio. I have some other stuff but I already know it's not cutting board material (cedar, etc..).
Is there any of the above that you guys would not use on a cutting board? Mesquite is hard enough so I thought I'd use it and Walnut for sure. I've seen some cherry used on the You Tubes, but not Ash. The Pistachio is hard too but I'm not sure if it plays well with others. I also have still not decided whether to mix the woods or go with one kind only.
I'm not going to buy any wood.
