Handcrafted end-grain maple cutting board where knife edges cut between wood fibers rather than across them. The board self-heals from cut marks and is the gentlest surface for maintaining knife sharpness.

Cons

Expensive compared to edge-grain

Don't buy this if…

End-grain boards are significantly heavier than edge-grain; a large board can weigh 15+ pounds, making it difficult to move and impossible to wash in most sinks.
