wood finishing
A question for the wood workers out there. I am making a traditional Ulu knife for my son and daughter-in-law. The handle will be maple. Butcher block maple. Very hard. The question is, how should I finish this handle? I hate to just varnish it. Is there any other finish that would be good for this kind of wood? Tung oil? linseed oil?
