{"product_id":"hickory","title":"Hickory","description":"\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;Hickory is the hardest and heaviest domestic hardwood we carry — nearly twice as hard as Cherry and significantly harder than White Oak. Its dramatic contrast between pale sapwood and reddish-brown heartwood creates a bold, rustic look that's become highly fashionable in farmhouse and cabin-style interiors. Extremely tough and shock-resistant, but that same density makes it demanding to work. Carbide tooling recommended. Worth the effort for applications where strength and character both matter.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;table\u0026gt;\u0026lt;tr\u0026gt;\u0026lt;td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;strong\u0026gt;Latin name\u0026lt;\/strong\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;td\u0026gt;Carya spp.\u0026lt;\/td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/tr\u0026gt;\u0026lt;tr\u0026gt;\u0026lt;td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;strong\u0026gt;Janka hardness\u0026lt;\/strong\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;td\u0026gt;1,820 lbf\u0026lt;\/td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/tr\u0026gt;\u0026lt;tr\u0026gt;\u0026lt;td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;strong\u0026gt;Origin\u0026lt;\/strong\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;td\u0026gt;Eastern North America\u0026lt;\/td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/tr\u0026gt;\u0026lt;tr\u0026gt;\u0026lt;td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;strong\u0026gt;Avg. dried weight\u0026lt;\/strong\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;td\u0026gt;51 lbs \/ ft³\u0026lt;\/td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/tr\u0026gt;\u0026lt;tr\u0026gt;\u0026lt;td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;strong\u0026gt;Workability\u0026lt;\/strong\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;td\u0026gt;Challenging\u0026lt;\/td\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/tr\u0026gt;\u0026lt;\/table\u0026gt;\u0026lt;p\u0026gt;\u0026lt;strong\u0026gt;Common uses:\u0026lt;\/strong\u0026gt; Tool handles · Flooring · Cabinets · Furniture · Ladder rungs · BBQ smoking wood\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;","brand":"Goliath Hardwoods","offers":[{"title":"4\/4 (1\")","offer_id":48280802918553,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8\/4 (2\")","offer_id":48280802951321,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/hedgeswoodcraft.com\/products\/hickory","provider":"Hedges Woodcraft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
