Care instructions
- Don't put the block in the dishwasher or leave it soaking in water for too long
- Apply mineral oil to the surface of the block once a month to prevent drying out
- Sanitise your cutting board by wiping surface down with mild dish soap and water
- Use a good steel scraper or spatula as necessary to keep the cutting surface clean and sanitary
- Don't use a razor edged cleaver on the block as it will chip or splinter the wood and produce soft spots, using a dull sharpened edge is best

I want an entire counter of this!
It's a lovely, sturdy, heavy butcher's block. It's plenty big enough to cut up three or four type of veggies and leave the piles there for adding to the food. I added some rubber nobs to the bottom to keep it from sliding. Now it's permanently on my counter and perpetually in use. I wish I could buy one double the size!
I would recommend this product to a friend.

Big and heavy!
It's nice and heavy :) Not too soft, so it makes a satisfying sound when chopping. It's cumbersome to wash though, so I don't cut raw meat on it.

Great chopping board
I recently purchased this chopping board and not only is it beautiful, it is a really good size. Try the oil with it to keep it nicely maintained and its looks as good as new.

Dissappointed.
I am a bit disappointed. When opened it was not oiled — looked very dry. I used it once — wiped with damp cloth only and then the wood seemed shaved! Only 1 insert was nice and "unshaved". It's almost as if the wood splinters. What a let down ?

Disappointing quality with too many defects
After unpacking the chopping board, I noticed several places on the board where tiny pieces of the top layer of wood looked like they were peeling off. I realise that natural wood is not perfect, but it has just gotten worse. There are now several places on the board where little pieces of wood have peeled up off the board, leaving gaps where food gets stuck and edges that can damage my knives. Read more
