The price of a cutting/carving/charcuterie board) depends on the type of wood species, thickness, length/width, finishing, added features (juice groove, finger grips, handles, legs) and if you select any decorative personalization or engraving.

Cleaning: Wash with warm water and dish soap, towel dry, and set your cutting board on its edge to air dry so that the air can circulate the board. Oiling: Oiling or waxing your cutting boards helps to repel moisture and acts as a protective finish. Make sure to oil your cutting board with food-grade cutting board oil monthly (depending on how often the board is used.), covering both sides and all the edges. Mineral oil is an inexpensive and popular choice. Waxing is also acceptable, but you want to oil first, as wax does not penetrate the wood. Storing: Store your cutting board on its edge (like a book) and never in direct sunlight. If you keep your cutting board flat, a large surface area of wood will not be allowed to breathe correctly, and a moisture imbalance can occur, which can cause the board to warp and crack. If you love the beauty of your cutting board and want to display it flat on the countertop, you need to ensure enough airflow to the bottom surface by adding rubber feet.

We do not recommend using bleach to clean our wood cutting boards.

A juice groove, or juice trough, is a small trough around the perimeter of your board to catch drippings from carving meat and prevent runoff from spilling onto your countertops and making a mess. Standard Juice grooves are 1/2" thick and cut 1" off the edge of your cutting board.

End grain cutting boards are made with the grain running vertically and have a block pattern. Imagine looking at the end of a log, that is the end grain. In contrast, edge grain cutting boards are made with the grain running horizontally and have a stripe pattern. All cutting boards will develop knife marks over time. End grain cutting boards are more durable and have less visible knife marks than edge grain boards because the knife slips between the wood fibers instead of cutting the fibers. There will still be some knife marks, but the fibers do an excellent job of “self-healing” and returning to their original shape.
