No, as a finish process bud, he's after the smooth, hard, shiny finish he mentioned from the forks in the picture above.

I'm sure there's a way. I've heard of "hammered" oak being used as fence boards, and apparently lasting a very long time. From what I was made to believe, they'd run the board through a blacksmiths trip hammer, and kinda compress it. My father salvaged a few boards, and made a chair from one...

True, but in my experience those internal stresses tend to manifest either while cutting, or very shortly thereafter. However, I've found that individual boards can have some pretty interesting stresses that are not readily apparent. An incident involving cutting stringers for a set of porch...
