Hi bawell,

Butternut is one of the softest woods to carve
It's easy to Dent when Handling or Carving.

Here's a .pdf of a good Wood Hardness Chart that I use

Butternut is soft like Ken say's. It will be real hairy if you carve it ,it also sands bad. After carving brush plenty of sanding sealer' it will help.
