'Sealing/coating' an oak mash paddle

[Crouch]

So I smashed out a mash paddle in the workshop the other night ... its Tasmanian oak, 18mm thick by 110mm (I think?) ... anyway, should I coat it with something, or leave it untreated .. or not use it at all?

Mine is untreated and that is what I would recommend, Nice paddle.

Leave it untreated . I carved mine out of a piece of hardwood flooring .

Leave it untreated, just give it a thorough clean after each use and let it dry.

Geeze I only use a huge wooden spoon.
Now I feel inadequate...

There's an idea, I've got a couple of lengths at home which need using.
