Know before you buy
End-grain construction means the wood fibers are oriented vertically rather than horizontally. When your knife strikes the board, the fibers part slightly and then close back up, which prevents the blade from dulling quickly compared to traditional edge-grain boards.
Because this board is made from kiln-dried larch, it is highly stable. To maintain its condition, simply hand wash it with mild soap, dry it thoroughly, and periodically apply a food-safe mineral oil or board cream to keep the wood hydrated.
Larch wood contains natural resins and tannins that possess inherent antimicrobial properties. While it is more hygienic than many other materials, you should still follow standard food safety practices, such as washing the board thoroughly after contact with raw meat.
The board features integrated rubber feet on the bottom to provide stability and airflow, which means it is designed to be used on one side. The feet also prevent the board from sliding during heavy chopping tasks.
Every Larch Wood board is handcrafted from natural timber, meaning the grain pattern and color variations are unique to each individual piece. You can expect a high-quality, one-of-a-kind aesthetic that reflects the natural character of the wood.
