Grant Tomchuk Hi, May I know what is the condition of your cutting board now? How you take care of it? I learn people using beeswax and coconut oil ratio 1:3 to season the board. Do you know whether can I just using the coconut oil and omit the beeswax to do so? Thank you!

the soft rubber feet also help to reduce noise when you are using a meat cleaver. it reduces the chopping noise/impulse passing through the board to the tabel and floor.

This video should be called "How to mass-produce high-quality butcher block cutting boards". I've seen craftsmen make cutting boards using far more time-consuming techniques. I'm glad there are operations like this though, as I can't afford a one-off hand made board. My wife just gave me a beautiful teak butcher block cutting board or Christmas and I imagine it was made in a very similar way as these boards. Nicely done.

I made an end grain cutting board back in 1971 and I'm still using it. No more for cutting but placing hot food dishes on. I resurfaced it after her in doors decided she wanted to tenderise meat on it with a meat mallet. Anyway it came back great. Yep they last for years, decades.

Outstanding video and story of your company. I was a little surprised that an end grain cutting board could be made from a softwood. I use primarily hard maple with walnut, cherry, and some exotics for contrast. The bit at the end showing the natural healing properties of the wood was great. It's always been a dream of mine to ride my motorcycle to NS. Been to most provinces in Canada and rode the Trans-Canada HW from BC to Ontario.... This would be 24 hours driving time for me (80 miles southwest of Washington, DC); No biggie, I rode to Alaska. Thank you.

I own such a board and a good knife and I really like it! I even keep bringing it with me to cook for other people. My knife stays sharp much more longer and the surface stays as new. It's possible to see cuts but these get smaller over time and blend in. Mine is made out of pear wood and has been made in south germany. The one side has a faerly deep juice rim carved into it and it really helps keeping the counter clean. It doesn't have any rubber feed so I put a damp towel between the counter and my board. It does the job :-)
