Gibson Kenosha Cutting Board

No, this board is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the acacia wood and prevent warping or cracking, you should hand wash it with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately.

Because the board is finished with food-grade oil, you should periodically apply a food-safe mineral oil or wood conditioner. This keeps the wood hydrated, prevents it from drying out, and maintains its natural, rich color.

Yes. Acacia wood is a relatively soft hardwood, which makes it an excellent surface for cutting. It provides enough resistance for a clean cut while being forgiving enough to keep your knife edges sharp for longer compared to glass or plastic boards.

The integrated juice groove is deep enough to catch runoff from juicy items like tomatoes, citrus, or resting meats. It effectively keeps liquids contained on the board rather than spilling onto your countertops.

At 10 pounds, this board has significant heft. Its weight, combined with the solid acacia construction, ensures it stays firmly in place on your countertop while you are chopping or slicing, providing a very stable workspace.
