Know before you buy
Yes. Teak wood is naturally knife-friendly, providing a surface that is firm enough for stability but soft enough to prevent premature dulling of your blade edges.
No, this board is not dishwasher safe. High heat and excessive moisture from a dishwasher can cause the wood to warp or crack; it should be hand-washed and dried immediately.
To keep the teak from drying out, periodically apply a food-grade mineral oil or wood conditioner. This helps maintain the wood's natural luster and prevents it from absorbing excess moisture.
Edge grain construction is highly durable and resistant to deep cuts, making it an excellent choice for heavy-duty tasks like carving meats or frequent vegetable prep.
Not at all. The board is fully reversible, featuring a juice canal on one side for carving and a completely flat, smooth surface on the other for general chopping and prep work.
With a thickness of 1.5 inches and a substantial 20 x 15-inch footprint, this board is heavy and stable, which prevents it from sliding around your countertop during rigorous prep work.
