Rustic Mixed Species Edge Grain Cutting Boards
We make these cutting boards from a mixture of several hardwood species, all in the rustic grade - Hard Maple, Soft Ambrosia Maple, Soft Curly Maple, White Oak, Hickory, Elm, Ash and Pecan.
The boards here are made edge grain, so the faces are glued together, making for a stronger surface. All our edge grain boards have a juice groove.
There is a lot of care and attention to detail that goes in to each and every board, starting with board selection, alignment, grain orientation, etc. Rustic grade lumber, by its very nature, tends to be quite knotty and have some splits and voids. We make sure to stabilize every piece and fill in all cracks, voids, etc. with food safe CA glue, even and especially in the juice grooves.
We sand our boards at 80, 100, 120, 150, 180 and 220 grits, never skipping a step. And we water pop our boards before our final sanding. Also, we apply Walrus Oil to our boards after the final sanding, let them rest overnight, wipe off any excess oil and then seal with Walrus Wax.
Multiple sizes are available. Please make your selection from the drop-down menu.
