Handcrafted Walnut & Cherry End Grain Cutting Board – Reversible Hardwood Board

True End Grain Craftsmanship • Designed to Be Used and Admired

A handcrafted, reversible end grain cutting board made from solid American walnut and cherry, designed for cooks who value durability, performance, and natural beauty. The board shown is the exact item you will receive, showcasing a striking end grain pattern that highlights the warmth of cherry contrasted against deep walnut tones — no two boards are ever alike.

Sized intentionally as an intermediate cutting board, this piece strikes a balance between portability and performance. It’s easy to move, store, and handle, making it ideal for smaller kitchens or limited counter space, while still offering enough surface area to serve as a dedicated prep board in larger kitchens. Many cooks find this size perfect as a second board — ready for quick tasks, specialty prep, or everyday use without committing to a full-size block.

Crafted with Purpose

This cutting board is crafted from solid American walnut and cherry using true end grain construction, chosen for its durability, knife-friendly performance, and long-term reliability. End grain allows knife edges to slip between wood fibers rather than cutting across them, helping preserve sharpness while reducing wear over time. All shaping, sanding, and finishing work is done by hand, resulting in smooth edges, a refined surface, and a board that feels substantial and intentional in use. The final finish is a food-safe blend of oil and beeswax that enhances the natural grain while protecting the wood for daily kitchen work.

Design Features
• True end grain construction for durability and knife-friendly cutting
• American walnut and cherry hardwoods selected for strength and natural contrast
• Fully reversible design with two identical finished sides for cutting or display
• Continuous perimeter groove carved around the edge to allow easy pickup and movement
• Low-profile, flat base for stable cutting without feet or added hardware
• Hand-applied oil and beeswax finish for food-safe protection and rich grain depth
• Naturally aging surface that develops character over time on the cutting side

Intended Use

Designed as a functional cutting board first, this piece is built for confident knife work, everyday food preparation, and repeated use. Its intermediate size makes it especially well suited for quick prep tasks, smaller workspaces, or as an additional board alongside a larger cutting surface. When one side is reserved from cutting, it also serves beautifully for light presentation or countertop display.
