Standard Cutting board size is 1-3/8″ Thick x 16-1/4” Deep and 18-1/8″ Wide and is edge grain construction. The boards can be ordered in any of the 60+ species we offer. The depth and width can be adjusted to meet your specifications.
Good for standard chopping and slicing and bread service. The reverse side of the cutting boards will always have a flat surface unless specified otherwise.
A great choice for carving meat, it will catch the juice so it doesn’t run onto the counter or the table. Also works great for melons and other juicy fruits and vegetables. You may customize the shape of the groove to fix your needs. Standard is a simple rectangular groove around the outside edge. The image below shows the standard rectangle with an additional classic tree design.
The board tapers from the front edge to a sunken back at an angle. This board is an excellent performer for chopping and carving. It is particularly useful for chopping items, like carrots that may roll off the edge of a cutting board.
The center of the board is sunken. This is commonly used for serving cheese and grapes. It also serves dual function as a carving board.
Every Grothouse Butcher Block Prestige Chef’s Box™ includes engraving on the front edge of the cutting boards. Logos or Text can be used on any or all pieces. Please specify this upon order placement. Engraving on the work surface or bottom of the boards as well as the case is available for a small extra charge.
Cutting boards are slide in and out on solid wood runners mounted to the sides of the box. These runners mate to slots in the side of the cutting boards. This allows of removal of the boards one at a time. If you plan on mounting the Prestige™ box vertically (in a cabinet for example) you may wish to delete this feature.
Many pull options exist for the Butcher Block Prestige™ Box. The box ships standard with no pulls. This allows the designer to match surface mount pulls to the rest of the kitchen space. We also offer the following custom pull options:
This is a very European style, with no extension of pulls. This pull does minimize the engraving to a maximum height of 3/16″
This is a classic finger pull design. We hand chisel this into the front of each cutting board.
With this type we make a pull from the same wood or a different wood and integrate it seamlessly with your cutting boards.
