Naw that's not teak.Plus teak isn't that hard it just full of sand and oils that dull blades like nothing.
Looks like oak to me.

This string reminds me of a fellow who owned and engineering company and had money to spend for building a sport fishing boat.
He went to Costa Rica and bought a teak tree and made lumber from it. Can you imagine such a thing? He used the lumber to
trim the boat.

Grit and dirt are a common component of pallets. You have no way of knowing what the pallets were sitting on when they were stacked. The weight will grind grit into the surface of the wood. When you plane or cut the wood, the grit will dull tooling very quickly. It's a good reason not to use pallet wood unless you can examine carefully it with a magnifying glass to determine how dirty it is.
Personally, I never use pallet wood.
