I think anyone who's watched until the end was watching because these projects are so awesome to see unfold minute by minute.
-
Oh, I see a Christmas present for my daughter and daughter-in-law(s)!
-
I was raised to eat pretty much anything so I’m not worried about wood

Hey Cam, Love the white Oak!! 2nd Purple Heart
-
Hey Cam, really nice work. As I understand, wooden chopping boards and wooden mallets are the safest for use in food preparation.
-
They all look amazing M8!! And yes! To your last question!!! Hundreds of years ago they were using wood mallets on wood!! (As much as wood boards and entire kitchens) hundreds of years ago we were still not 8 billion ppl on this beautiful place!!! So... It can't be so bad right?😅

I watched this video after "freehanding" my own mallet and I see many things I could improve on with my next. Very informative, thanks a bunch.
-
I love the look of the katalox head with the curly maple handle.
-
I was raised using wooden mallets in the kitchen, I really loved the purple with the brass, and the white oak with that black handle. So beautiful. My nana said the same thing about white oak, that it had best qualities for kitchen uses.

I may try to build a mallet.... Love the video

TY for not adding music. I have unsubbed from over 300 channels in the last 2 months because they keep adding music. I like the dark mallet with oak handle. I user plastic cutting boards because they are easier to keep clean. When you cut on wood you scratch it up and crap gets in there and it looks messy. I don't clean my stuff super well. I think a little bit of bacteria on everything is fine. Even if i kill all the bacteria they will just grow back quickly. I also think wood holds onto moisture longer. I do use wooden spoons for stirring, and use wooden mallets. but again I don't cut on them. I do have bamboo cutting boars but mostly for looks. I prefer to use the plastic especially if its poultry. Salmonella sucks.

I don't want to use wood for raw meat preparation (mallet or cutting board). I have a metal mallet since I can pop that into my dishwasher. BTW, these type of videos are entertaining. Not every woodworking project has to be a table top.
-
If a wood cutting board was so bad, mankind never would have made it this far.
-
Love watching your videos. The best tip you nonchalantly dropped in 1of your videos was bubly and crystal light. I'm addicted to it so thanks.
-
I like the purple heart as far as looks. I would use one of these for meat without issue. If it’s cleaned right, there should be no problem. I love your work as always! ❤
-
I love the one that looks like a mace! The one that broke. Totally impractical for kitchen work, but it's too cool looking not to love. I'm too hyperactive to properly care for wooden kitchen utensils, especially cutting boards, but there is always something a little better about the food that comes off a wooden cutting board.
-
Purple heart! White oak is a perfectly acceptable "Meat-Wood" More awesome ideas thanks!
-
Personal preferences, no black handles and no purple. They are still awesome and fun to watch. Had to laugh, as I was reading comments on my lap top, someone said "TY for not adding music". As soon as I read it, the music on your waterfall table video started on the TV. I don't use mallets but would not hesitate to use one.
-
I actually like the oak. I love the natural look. Gonna try to make one soon. Thanks

This is a pretty small detail I noticed when you were describing and giving tips, you never said anything about your way being better, rather what you prefer and a reason why its good for you, or in general. I really appreciate that, when I was first starting woodworking guys would say that the "right way" to do something, but everyone is different, honestly I would have made this same mallet a completely different way, using mainly a bandsaw because, like you said its what I prefer, but your way of doing it is something I'd never think of and its way better for mass production and reproducing something exactly the same, and I'm probably going to infuse that into my style. Didnt mean to write a whole paragraph there, but to sum it up, thats an amazing video, with some even cooler concepts!
