Know before you buy
No, the laser-engraved logo is featured on one side of the board. This allows you to use the logo side for serving and charcuterie, while keeping the reverse side dedicated to food preparation.
This board is hand wash only; avoid soaking it or putting it in the dishwasher, as excess water can cause the wood to warp or crack. We recommend periodically applying a food-safe mineral oil to keep the maple hydrated and prevent it from drying out.
Steaming the wood helps stabilize the grain, which significantly enhances the board's overall durability and resistance to warping. This process ensures the board remains flat and sturdy even after repeated use in a busy kitchen.
Yes, the board is fully reversible. One side features a juice groove to catch liquids when carving meats, while the other side is completely flat, providing a larger, uninterrupted surface for chopping vegetables or prepping ingredients.
At 8 pounds, this board has significant heft, which helps it stay securely in place on your countertop during heavy-duty prep work. Its 1.6-inch thickness also provides a solid, stable foundation for all your slicing and dicing needs.
