Know before you buy
Yes, American Black Walnut is an excellent choice. It is a medium-density hardwood that is gentle on knife edges while remaining durable enough to withstand daily chopping and slicing.
Edge grain construction provides a sturdy, stable surface that is highly resistant to warping. It is specifically designed to handle the heavy-duty demands of a professional kitchen environment.
The reversible design allows you to use one side for raw proteins and the other for produce, helping to prevent cross-contamination. It also helps the board wear more evenly over time.
To keep the wood from drying out or cracking, you should apply a food-grade mineral oil or board cream regularly. How often depends on your climate and usage, but a good rule of thumb is once a month.
At 9 pounds, this board is substantial. The recessed finger grips are essential for lifting the board off the counter safely, especially when it is wet or needs to be flipped.
