Know before you buy
Yes. The edge-grain teak construction provides a surface that is gentle on knife edges, helping to maintain their sharpness longer compared to harder materials like glass or stone.
To keep the board in top condition, apply a food-grade mineral oil once a month. This simple routine prevents the wood from drying out and maintains its natural moisture resistance.
Yes, the integrated juice canal is designed to catch liquids from fruits, vegetables, or meats during prep, effectively keeping your workspace clean and tidy.
No, this board is not reversible. It features a juice canal on one side, so it is intended to be used with the flat side down and the grooved side up.
At 0.55 inches thick, this board is lightweight and easy to handle. While it is stable for general prep, you may want to place a damp paper towel or a silicone mat underneath if you prefer extra grip during heavy-duty chopping.
