The bright tones of the hard maple make this board a lively addition to any kitchen, while the addition of the walnut gives the whole piece a nice eye catching accent. Given it’s thickness, it makes for a nice sturdy and elegant surface for chopping. As with any of our boards, they can also serve as an attractive surface for your charcuterie displays when entertaining guests. Each board comes with rubber feet to hold the block secure to your kitchen counter while cutting, and the finger grooves on the bottom sides make it very easy to pick up.
This beefcake of a butcher block is made out of solid hardwood - 100% American Hard Maple and Walnut, and treated with a food-safe finish.
While you can make a butcher block out of any wood really, hard maple has been an industry standard for years for cutting boards and butcher blocks. Maple is hard enough to withstand the abuse of being a cutting board, but not so hard that it will damage or dull down your expensive knives. It's also a very attractive wood, with a nice grain texture, allowing your sweet little beefcake to tow the line between beauty and function… and as the potential new owner of one of these, you need to be sensitive to the fact that on a daily basis your little beefcake struggles with a very intense identity crises. It’s unsure of whether it's supposed to be a brawny butcher block, or very attractive decorative piece for your kitchen, and as such it's is often very anxious and irritable. Like a confused pre-teen trying to impress a crush, it may flip flop on a dime trying to be all things you want it to be, just minus the acne.
But in all seriousness, just a high-quality butcher block here with some really attractive walnut inlayed into it.

This block design is made out of solid hardwood (duh) and consists of Walnut, Cherry, and Hard Maple. The wood has been hand selected from rough stock at my local family-owned lumber yard here in Nashville, and cut and planed myself to be used in the work you see here.
All blocks are finished with a food-safe finish, and come standard with high grade rubber feet and finger grooves on the bottom.
