Edge grain cutting boards are crafted from the long sides of the wood, creating a surface with tight, linear grain lines and excellent stability. This orientation provides a strong, durable cutting surface that resists warping and maintains its form through daily use. Edge grain boards offer a perfect balance of functionality and elegance, making them a popular choice for both home cooks and professionals.

End grain cutting boards expose the cross-section of the wood fibers, forming a distinctive checkerboard pattern prized for both beauty and performance. The vertical grain orientation allows knife blades to sink between the fibers rather than slicing through them, preserving sharpness and minimizing surface damage. Known for their self-healing qualities and exceptional durability, end grain boards represent the gold standard in premium cutting surfaces.

Face grain cutting boards showcase the wide, flat surface of the wood, bringing out its richest colors, grain patterns, and natural beauty. This orientation highlights the artistry of the wood itself, making it ideal for serving or display pieces. However, because the fibers run lengthwise across the surface, face grain boards are more prone to knife marks and wear over time.

Deep, rich brown tones and subtle grain patterns make Walnut a perennial favorite. Luxurious, durable, and timeless, it's prized for its natural beauty and silky-smooth finish.

Cherry's warm reddish tones and smooth grain develop a rich patina over time. Its classic beauty and fine texture lend an elegant, heirloom quality to every handcrafted piece.

Hickory's striking contrast of light and dark tones embodies rustic strength and natural charm. Extremely tough and resilient, it's ideal for functional boards that demand both durability and style.

Pure tung oil is a premium, plant-based drying oil that cures within the wood to create a durable, water-resistant finish. It enhances depth, contrast, and character in the grain while offering longer-lasting protection than non-drying oils. Once fully cured, tung oil is food-safe and highly resistant to moisture.

Mineral oil is a classic, food-safe finish widely trusted for cutting boards and kitchen essentials. It penetrates deeply into the wood, enriching natural color and grain while providing immediate moisture protection. Because mineral oil does not harden, it gradually washes out with use and cleaning—this is normal and expected.

Beeswax adds a warm, natural sheen and a smooth, inviting feel to handcrafted wood pieces. Often used in combination with oils, it enhances moisture resistance while preserving a soft, traditional finish. Beeswax helps slow moisture loss and protects the surface without creating a heavy film.
