17x11x0.75 inch walnut cutting board

This cutting board is exceptionally sturdy and, with proper care, it is sure to provide decades of use. The surface is smooth, and the color of the black walnut wood is truly gorgeous. The cutting board is highly functional, featuring a well-designed liquid-capturing channel that surrounds the entire board. The corners are smoothly finished with square edges. Its light weight makes it easy for anyone to handle. The size we purchased is perfectly sufficient for our needs, and it is also available in larger sizes. The care instructions included in the package are very helpful. I would highly recommend this product to anyone seeking a high-quality, non-toxic cutting board.

They are well made, sturdy and beautiful cutting boards- thanks Virginia Boys!

I have owned the Virginia Boys Kitchens 8x12 Solid Maple Wood Cutting Board for only three months, and unfortunately, it has already developed a visible crack. I have been diligent in caring for it, regularly treating the wood with their recommended cutting board oil and wax, yet the crack still appeared prematurely. While I understand that wood cutting boards naturally require maintenance and can develop wear over time, I would have expected this quality board to last at least a year before showing any signs of cracking. The fact that it began to crack so soon is disappointing and, frankly, unacceptable given the price and brand claims of durability. I reached out to Virginia Boys Kitchens through their website, noting their satisfaction guarantee, but I have yet to receive any response or assistance. This lack of customer support only adds to my frustration. In summary, while the board is made from solid American maple and came with quality care products, its early cracking and poor customer service lead me to caution potential buyers. I hope Virginia Boys Kitchens improves their product longevity and responsiveness going forward. If this board was inexpensive I may not have rated it a 1 star. But the fact that it is fairly expensive and the quality is deteriorating I really expected much more.

Really great looking. The edge routed on the board is great for catching juices.

It's not Boos' quality or beauty and not to showcase in you kitchen, but great outdoors for a real grillmaster. Very sturdy and holds up very well.

I was looking for a smaller board to use for little things like fruit so I had found this one and decided to order. Upon opening the packaging I saw oil stains on the cardboard inside which is a good sign, means it really is/was preseasoned. It's a nice chocolate brown color. The wood felt soft so it shouldn't wear my knives down quick. The price also wasn't bad for it being a Walnut board. Used it once so far and noticed a few things. Pros: - Aesthetically pleasing (rich color and grain) - Lightweight - Soft enough not to damage knives - Good size for small items (berries, cherry tomatoes, etc) Cons: - Bit smaller than I expected (also I believe it's about .75 inches thick) - Knife marks already showing (though edge grain is more prone to do this, just wasn't expecting to see them after one use) Big Con: - Mine had grain pieces lifting/splintering after initial use & mild wash, not surprising with edge grain, but it was really bad. So bad that I had to refinish and reseason the entire board, I'm lucky I had spare extra fine and fine grain sandpaper laying around along with John Boos care products. It also got really dry after that wash, and I didn't use very hot water or a lot of soap (just a drop or two) since I had only cut up some garlic cloves and bacon pieces. The rich dark chocolate color turned to this very pale and dull shade of brown. Despite all this, I'm still keeping the board to see how it performs in the future after finishing and seasoning it. However, if you're someone who doesn't know any better about woodworking/being handy, I could see why you'd return it. That being said, I still wasn't too happy about sitting down at the table and sanding my board for an hour while occasionally rinsing and checking for more lifting. I'm still in the process of seasoning, as I've had to oil it a few more times to make sure it's completely moisturized, just waiting for the beeswax to settle in. It's my first Walnut as well as edge grain board. My other boards are end grain Teak, about 1.5 - 2 inches thick. No splinters or marks after heavy use. Either way, please remember to season your boards once in a while!

Bought this for my son for Christmas. It’s due in great shape that was last year or the year before.

You know you are no longer in your 20’s when things like this excite you. Amazing quality and aesthetic! Waiting for their oil to be delivered as well.

Bretter aus amerikanischen Walnußholz in dieser Größe sind nie billig. Dieses ist vom Preis durchaus im niedrigeren Bereich angesiedelt. Die Verarbeitung ist perfekt, beide Seiten sind einwandfrei geschliffen, die Saftrille ist sauber gefräst. Das Brett kommt übrigens -auch laut Beschreibung- vorbehandelt, laut Beipackzettel mit Kokosöl. Ich bevorzuge Leinöl, da dieses aushärtet, das Brett habe ich daher direkt nochmal nachbehandelt. Einen Geruch nach Essig, wie viele hier schreiben, hat mein Brett nicht. Natürlich ist es nicht geruchsneutral, es riecht halt nach Holz! :-) Amerikanisches Walnußholz hat übrigens einen ähnlichen Härtegrad wie Kirschholz (Brinell ca. 2,9) und ist somit deutlich weicher als Bambus, Eiche, Akazie oder Buche. Perfekt zum messerschonenden Schneiden! Sicher wird man auf Dauer Schnitte sehen können, aber es ist ja auch ein Arbeitsgerät und kein Wohnzimmertisch! Wer -wie ich- Spaß an schönen Küchenutensilien hat wird am diesem Brett sicher seine Freude haben. Kaufempfehlung!

j ai acheté cette planche a découper car je n avais plus de planche les les miennes se cassaient facilement et la pour la découper de mon poulet enchanté elle est très grande avec une rigole le long pour la sauce .

The chopping board was packaged really well (not too much, not too little) and the box came in super handy when it came to seasoning the board. I kept it in there while I was doing it so I didn’t get the coconut oil everywhere. It’s really easy to clean, (just give it a wipe over) I then leave it leaning up against the side so it dries properly. The wood is beautiful, It looks good in my kitchen. A lovely piece, it will last some time........well worth the money

Esteticamente è molto carino. Il suo essere in legno, lo rende da un lato molto solido e compatto, allo stesso tempo molto robusto. Quando viene lavato, si asciuga molto rapidamente ed emana un fantastico odore di legno. Un po' caro, ma ne vale la pena. Consigliatissimo

I was concerned looking at some rviews but all my concerns disappeared after I received and used the wood plate. The quality is outstanding and the look it beautiful. Being an photograph amateur, I even regularly use it to take pictures of food
