The checkerboard, and the two woods
The checkerboard, and the two woods
End grain. The board is built from blocks stood on end, so a knife meets the cut ends of the fibres rather than their sides. Standing fibres part around a blade and close again behind it, which is why an end-grain board heals rather than scars and why it is the kindest surface a knife edge can meet.
Two woods, honestly. The checkerboard alternates a dark timber with a pale one — that contrast is two different woods, not one wood shaded. It is what makes the pattern, and it is why no two boards line up the same way.
Care
Care
Wipe with a damp cloth and dry. No soaking, no dishwasher — a glued end-grain block and standing water do not get on.
Oil it more often than a thin board; end grain drinks because the fibre ends are open. Food-grade mineral oil, wiped on and left overnight, brings the contrast between the two woods right back up.
An end-grain board worth leaving out.
End grain, in a checkerboard.
Blocks stood on end and glued into a grid, so the face you cut on is the cut ends of the fibres. Those fibres part around a blade and close behind it rather than being sliced through, which means the board recovers from a day's chopping and your knife does not pay for it. The pattern is a by-product of building it properly.

Light against dark, and that's two timbers.
The contrast in the grid is genuinely two different woods rather than one stained two ways — you can see the growth rings run differently in the pale squares and the dark ones. It is why the board reads as a made object at ten paces, and why no two of them come out identical.
- Two timbers, not a stain
- No two boards alike
- Grain visible in both
A hang hole and a leather cord.
Drilled through one corner with a cord through it, because a board this good-looking should not live flat in a cupboard. Hanging is also how a wooden board should be stored — air on both faces rather than one side pressed against a shelf. No juice groove, so both sides work.
- Hang hole and cord
- Air on both faces
- Flat both sides, no groove
Questions
Frequently asked about this board
What does end-grain mean?
The board is built from blocks stood on end, so your knife meets the cut ends of the fibres rather than their sides. They part around the blade and close behind it, so the board heals rather than scars and your edge lasts longer.
How big is it?
40 × 28cm and 2.5cm thick, with a hang hole and leather cord in one corner.
Is it really all one wood?
No, and the photographs show it. The checkerboard alternates a dark timber with a pale one — that contrast is two different woods. It is what makes the pattern, and we would rather describe it accurately than call it one thing.
Does it have a juice groove?
No. Both faces are flat, so you can work on either side — useful for keeping one face for raw and one for everything else.
Can it go in the dishwasher?
No. Wipe and dry it, and hang it up so both faces get air. A glued end-grain block will not survive a dishwasher.
How often should I oil it?
More often than a thin board, because end grain drinks. When the contrast between the two woods starts looking flat, wipe on food-grade mineral oil and leave it overnight.
How does it compare to the parquet board?
Same construction and the same price. The parquet is 3cm thick with a juice groove and comes in two sizes — the working board. This one is 2.5cm, flat both sides and hangs on a wall — the one that stays on show. Choose on where it will live.
