Know before you buy
End-grain construction allows the wood fibers to separate when your knife blade presses into them, rather than being sliced across. This prevents the blade from dulling quickly, keeping your knives sharper for longer.
This is a substantial piece measuring 24 by 24 inches. You will need a dedicated, flat area of at least two square feet to accommodate its footprint comfortably.
Yes, at 64 pounds, this block is exceptionally stable. Its significant weight ensures it will not slide or shift on your countertop during heavy-duty prep work.
To keep the wood from drying out or cracking, you should regularly apply a food-safe mineral oil or Boos Block Mystery Oil. This maintains the wood's moisture balance and keeps the grain looking vibrant.
Absolutely. Its aesthetic appeal makes it an excellent choice for a charcuterie or cheese board. Just be sure to clean and oil it properly after use to maintain its finish.
