Questions about this end grain cutting board?
What is an end grain cutting board?
An end grain cutting board is made with the wood fibers standing upright. This creates a durable cutting surface where the knife moves between the fibers instead of cutting directly across them.
Why is end grain more knife-friendly?
Because the upright wood fibers can separate slightly when cutting, the blade is less likely to hit a hard cross-grain surface. This makes end grain boards gentler on your knives and helps the surface stay beautiful for longer.
Does an end grain board have a self-healing effect?
Yes, to a certain degree. When the upright fibers come into contact with moisture and regular care oil, they can visually close again. This is why end grain boards are known for their durable, self-healing surface.
How should I clean the board?
Clean the board with a damp cloth after use and dry it immediately afterwards. Do not soak it in water and never clean it in the dishwasher.
Do I need to oil the board?
Yes. To protect the wood and maintain the end grain surface, refresh the board regularly with a suitable food-safe wood oil. This helps prevent drying and keeps the surface resistant in everyday use.
Is it suitable for heavy chopping?
Yes. End grain cutting boards are especially well suited for everyday cutting and chopping. The construction makes them durable, stable and ideal for demanding kitchen use.
Where is it made?
Each end grain cutting board is handcrafted in the Holz-Liebling manufactory in Bavaria, Germany. We carefully select the wood, arrange the end grain pieces, sand every surface and finish each board by hand.
