Primarily crafted from walnut, maple, and cherry—each board is graded for grain quality and stability. For custom designs, more exotic species such as Wenge, Nogal, and Yellow heart may be incorporated to achieve distinctive character and contrast. And Believe me... It's all about the contrast.

End grain boards are more durable and gentle on knives, as the blade slips between the wood fibers rather than cutting across them. Face grain boards highlight the beauty of the wood’s figure and are often more visually striking, but they are less resistant to heavy use and can dull knives faster.

Absolutely. Choose dimensions, grain style, juice groove, rubber feet, finger grips, and engraving. Submit a Custom Quote request and we’ll confirm specs and pricing. I can also work with you one-on-one if you have a specific image or concept in mind—my preference is crafting highly custom, personal boards tailored for the discerning client.

Currently, I do not keep back stock on any boards—each order is individually crafted and made to order. Once the deposit is received, the process generally takes about a week due to glue-up times, with timelines varying by design complexity; in most cases, after finalizing the design, I aim to have the board shipped within three weeks.
