We are considering a kitchen upgrade soon and I was looking at using hickory. The doors would be square raised panel and the drawer fronts would be solid stock. I would be using the existing shells and veneering the ends and faceframes.
I found this thread after a search and it seems Tom was not happy with this wood and how it treated his tools.

The wood would be bought in the rough and planed down by someone else's equipment so I really don't want to make things difficult.
Has anyone else worked much with hickory and had similar problems due to it being a hard wood and hard on tools?
Thanks all.
