Description
xExperience a thoughtfully crafted balance of size, weight, and surface texture with our End Grain Cutting Board from LW Handmade Larch Wood Canada. Measuring 17-3/4 by 13-1/2 inches and about 1-5/8 inches thick, this board offers ample room for a wide range of prep tasks while staying manageable to lift and reposition in a busy kitchen. It weighs roughly 8.5 pounds, a comfortable heft that anchors the board during chopping without feeling cumbersome.
Constructed in the Standard Line, the end grain design delivers a smooth, impact-resistant cutting surface that’s gentle on blades. The base sits on soft rubber feet secured with stainless steel screws, providing traction to prevent slips and a simple grip for quick moves between prep zones.
Natural character shines through: the larch wood exhibits subtle knots and color variations—pink, green, gray, or dark brown tones that reflect the soil and the trees' story. These markings aren’t flaws; they’re part of its distinctive, handmade appeal that complements a warm, welcoming kitchen aesthetic.
Practical advantages for real kitchens
- End grain construction offers durability and a forgiving surface that’s kind to knives, ideal for frequent chopping in home kitchens or bustling professional spaces.
- Large work area supports vegetables, proteins, and mixed prep tasks, while the board’s weight helps keep it steady during use.
- Non-slip, rubber feet protect countertops and make it easy to move the board when you’re reconfiguring prep zones.
Craftsmanship and origin
This board is proudly handmade in Margaree, Nova Scotia, by skilled Canadian craftspeople who specialize in end grain boards. Sourced from eastern Canadian larch (Larix laricina), it carries a heritage of woodworking that blends practicality with artistry.
Tips for use and care
