End-Grain – the Premium Class of Cutting Boards
With end-grain boards, the wood displays its end grain – which makes them particularly knife-friendly and durable. The knife blade glides into the wood fibers instead of across them, protecting both the knife and the board and significantly extending their lifespan.
Noble Block Pattern – Dark and Expressive
The alternating pattern of Iroko blocks and squares creates an appealing, geometric look – dark, elegant, and timeless. Each board is unique due to the natural wood grain.
