why not use the jointer to do both edges when you clamped them at the same time instead of the hand plane?

[@ekkopto]

Each of those halves of butcher block are a fair amount of weight, and my jointer is rather small. Due to that, I was afraid that I would introduce some amount of error. I am very confident in my hand plane. It's a nice vintage #6 union plane that shaves a couple thousandths per stroke.

@@ekkopto it looked good, just asking why, im new to woodworking, only about a year and havent built anything of great importance yet.

I would encourage you to go for it. My own experience is limited, but I try to get better with each project. I enjoy the process of design, the feeling of the wood, and the sense of accomplishment when I finish.
