Is this oil based like the can says? the description later says water-based???

It is definitely an oil-based product. The clean-up is with mineral spirits.

do you have to pre sand table before applying stain

All projects should be finish sanded with 220 grit or higher sand paper before applying stain or a finish coat with stain included in it.

Can I use this in butcher block counter tops?

I would but the countertop would not be suitable for cutting things. If you want a cutting block surface use appropriate oils instead.
