Boos Reversible Round Maple Cutting Board

Edge-grain construction uses wood strips oriented to show the side grain, which creates a durable, stable surface that is gentle on your knife blades. This method is specifically chosen for butcher blocks to ensure the board resists warping and stands up to daily heavy-duty use.

Yes, the board is fully reversible. One side features a juice groove to catch liquids during carving, while the other side is completely flat, making it ideal for serving charcuterie or appetizers.

To keep the wood from drying out or cracking, you should regularly apply a food-safe mineral oil or Boos Block Mystery Oil. Since this board comes pre-finished with Boos Board Cream, it is protected right out of the box, but consistent oiling is necessary for long-term maintenance.

Yes, the integrated finger grips are carved into the sides of the board, providing a secure hold for lifting and moving the board, even with its substantial 1.75-inch thickness.

The 12-inch board is perfect for smaller prep tasks, like slicing fruit or herbs, while the 15-inch option provides more surface area for carving roasts or serving larger groups. Choose the 15-inch size if you have the counter space and frequently prepare larger meals.

No, you should never put this wood cutting board in the dishwasher. High heat and excessive moisture will cause the wood to warp, crack, or split; always hand wash and dry it thoroughly after use.
