Occasionally we have a pretty board that has a few more voids or mineral streaks than we'd like to see on what we consider our premium boards. As we know from Wisdom Behind the Wood, almost all Maple has mineral streaks. It is the nature of Maple. We try to minimize them when we can, but they don't affect quality, form or function. But we give them a little discount because they might not match everyone's personal aesthetic preference.

Feet will NOT come standard on this board, but if you order a set we will be happy to install them for you.

You can also order finger grooves, a juice groove and/or engraving at checkout.

Know your wood

Three domestic hardwoods, chosen for the job

Hardness is measured on the Janka scale: the force needed to press a steel ball halfway into the wood. Hard enough to last, gentle enough on your knives.

Janka hardness of the woods The Boardsmith uses
WoodJanka hardnessCharacter
Hard MapleThis board 1450 lbf The hardest of our woods. Very small pores help keep moisture and food out.
Black WalnutThis board 1010 lbf Rich, dark brown heartwood. Like all three, durable and kind to knife edges.
Black Cherry 950 lbf Our softest wood, still hard and durable. Darkens from pinkish brown to a deep reddish brown with light.
