Ive used cherry, walnut, white and red oak, ash even a few clear dense pine ones. As far as the open grain of oak, it was actually really cool to see how the open grain on the end of the spatula. I used mineral oil coats, but with hot use while cooking and cleaning, eventually it will need refreshing. I have not had any issues with them, been at least 4 years of weekly use. Any fruitwood is considered safe in general. wenge, zebrawood and others pop up with a google search.
