Is this block an actual Michigan Maple Block? Was this board made in the USA?

I don't recall if it is American wood, however, it is made from a place in in northern Michigan and Michigan is know for having good maple wood as I am a resident

Yes, and yes... You will be quite happy with this butcher block... Also, at the current price of $42, buy it. I paid about $65 when I purchased and was quite happy then... At $42 I am considering another.

Hi Michelle, We purchased our from these guys and yes, I believe it was made in USA. There is a lot of maple in Michigan. One word of caution, their packaging is not good, ours was munched on one corner, I just cleaned it up in our garage with a file and sandpaper. I would buy again from them.Larry and Jill

Not sure - it is made of redwood - and Schrodt Designs is located in Iowa - may have to contact them! Made well though

I don't recall whether it is maple or oak, but it is a good quality top. You should note that there are several pre-drilled hole in the top as in the image. As for it's thickness, it is a 3/4" top with a 2 1/4 edge. It is pretty sturdy. As you have already surmised, it's not a $300 bench, but depending on the price, it's pretty good for the money. The drawers are hardboard bottoms and felt lined which I thought was a nice touch. Quality of fit and finish to me was 3 stars out of 5, but when taking the price into consideration I bump it up to 4 ;)

The bamboo is sourced in China and none of the advertising says the products are made in the US. Therefore, I think the products are produced in China too. I don't recall reading Made in USA on the lable when we got our board. I think the boards are high quality. We'd buy another if we needed it.

Since I have only purchased one of these blocks, I cannot speak for all of them, but the one I ordered had as logo (a Japanese character) lightly impressed in the front flat section under where the scissors go. It is a slightly darker color than the rest of the wood, which leads me to think this was done with a heated branding iron; the impression isn't deep enough or uniform enough to make me believe it was done using a router. If the logo really bothers you, it would be very simple to use an orbital sander to remove it. The wood in the block is unfinished, so there would be no issues matching the sanded front to the rest of the block.

Hello, the tool does not say it is made in USA. But Tekton is a company under Michigan Industrial Tools in Grand Rapids Michigan. You might contact them and see if their Tekton line of tools is American Made. Their Phone number is 888 648 8865

I believe the board was made in New York. The company is in the Catskill Mountains, like its name. I love my board. I did have it trimmed just a little to fit my pull out clot in the kitchen cabinets. It really looked good after just one rubbing of the special mineral oil for food boards.

I think it's made in the US. My grandson loved it and it's as sturdy as promised!

Take it for what it's worth...Mine says Made in the USA with globally sourced components. Maybe we made the box.

The board has a "Made in Italy" written on the surface. I was concerned about quality, not geography. Worked on a few projects with no problems. Price is reasonable.

I just received this block and mine too had the cheap sticker on the block. The box even has a picture of the block with the etched Wusthof name. It seemed weil-made overall, but back it goes.

Hi Liam P, after reviewing the board you have selected, and comparing it to an actual board with true features, i've determined this board is a true penny skateboard. It seems to have the following markings; Penny bearings, Penny P at end of tail, made in Australia since forever, and the logo on the foot plate. Hope this helped you out on your decision.

The Fein 72293768090 is made in Germany and it is the same as the 250Q. This item is titled as the 250Q on Woodcraft's website, so it must have been matched to this existing ASIN on Amazon. Thanks for the questions.

The company is based out of Michigan. Nowhere on my set does it say where they're made though.

No. It is made in Taiwan. See their website: http://www.huggermugger.com/cork-blocks.html
