What are the different reasons for using the oil over the conditioner and vice versa?

I have used both the oil and the conditioner. I have two cutting boards, both hardwood, one old board and one new board. For the old board (3" thick oak that I have used 40 years), I prefer the conditioner which gives a waxy, burnished surface and does a good job cleaning the board up. My new board (black walnut 3" thick) I applied multiple coats of oil to condition the wood. I used 3 coats front and back to begin. The oil will sink right in on a brand new air-dried board. The oil keeps the wood from drying out, brings out the grain, enhancing the beauty and the usefulness of the board. Each week when I was first using the new board, I have applied a couple of coats of oil. The board now looks and acts as if it is about 5 years old. I sometimes apply the conditioner after the oil as the beeswax gives some impenetrability to the wood. Both products are excellent, and I would now not go without having them! I also think the conditioner makes knife "tracks" a little less visible. My sons do not want to use their boards because of the beauty of the walnut, but of course the value of a good cutting board is its use in creating delectable things. Using these products will also make it easier to pat or roll out biscuits without them sticking to the board.

Is "Butcher Block Conditioner" or "Cutting Board Oil" better for Chicago Cutlery wooden knife handles?

The Butcher Block Conditioner includes beeswax, which will be more water repellent than just the oil. Treating the knive handle or cutting board (esp. a butcher block style board) with multiple applications will allow the beeswax to penetrate deeply into the wood. Once done, a quick wipedown with oil is all that is needed to keep the board in good condition.Short answer: use Conditioner on an newly made handle/board or a cutting board that is not acting water repellent, and oil as a touchup after washing.

Could I use this on finished oak wood, that is on most of my kitchen table and chairs?

Your wasting your time using this on "Finished" wood. A better option would be Murphy's Oil Soap.This is more for raw wood like cutting boards and seasoning cast iron cookware.

Can you use on bamboo?

why not? it is a hard wood. they have bamboo cutting boards. unless there is specific instuctions from the manufacturer stating otherwise.
