Penultimate End grain cutting boards are crafted with the highest quality woods. Because the ends of wood facing up, versus the face or edge of the wood, your kitchen knife won’t be able to “sever” any wood fibers, meaning it will stay sharper longer. This produces a natural “self-healing” process as knife pulls out of the board and the fibers push back together. Each board is sanded to perfection, soaked in food safe mineral oil for 24 hours; and protected and sealed with our special blend of butcher board wax.
