For those times you don’t need a full sized cutting board - cutting limes at the bar, or a quick slice of bread from the loaf - this has a narrower footprint to the full size boards, but is just as functional and beautiful!

Blending domestic hardwoods in a lovely mix, this is a classy addition to your kitchen!

 

This board is about 18” long, 6.5” wide and just under an inch thick. Finished with food grade mineral oil, this board will give you years of great service in any kitchen. Made using the edge grain of the wood, it will be heard wearing and kind to you knife edges. 

This board also has silicon feet installed to keep the board raised up off the kitchen counter and out of any standing water, which can be damaging to wooden boards. Every cutting board also comes with care instructions and 2oz of our hand made board butter to keep them happy and healthy.

Care information

Edge grain boards need a little bit of love and care to give you a lifetime of use – so please follow these guidelines!

Bees Board butter on a cutting board

  • They may feel greasy or oily when they arrive. This is normal! Temperature changes during shipping can melt or firm up the oil and wax, and it’s not uncommon for them to seep. This is why they are wrapped in plastic first. Simply wipe them down with a paper towel.
  • Never ever *ever* put them in the dishwasher! Big no no! They will dry out, twist and warp and make us all sad.
  • Water is the enemy. If possible, avoid leaving them on wet surfaces or soaking them in the sink. If they get wet, just wipe them off when you’re done – the bees wax will protect it, but you don’t want to let it soak and absorb too much. 
  • Storing them upright helps prevent water from soaking in and causing twists or warps.
  • If they start to look a little dry, or sad, or feel rough – give them a generous coating on all sides of the board oil – let them sit for anywhere between 30 mins and overnight, and buff them with a lint free cloth. This will rehydrate the board, and the wax will give it a water resistant coating. You may want to do this more often in the early days to get them nice and saturated.

None of this is a hard science – they are meant to be used, to be cut on, to be tools in your kitchen or grill and home – but like anything, a little bit of TLC will make them love you forever!

If they ever get so rough from use you want to resurface them, spend some time sanding down to 220 grit – then a liberal dose of board butter or mineral oil to bring the color back – and they will be good as new.

We sell our own custom blend of board butter! You can pick up 4oz right here.
