This is our most popular Cutting Board, titled the “OG” as it reflects our original design! it is an edge grain, striped board containing Maple, Walnut and Cherry hardwoods.
This Particular Cutting Board is offered in 2 sizes; Small (10″ x 16″ x 1.0″) and Large (12.5″ x 20″ x 1.0″)
All three woods used are the “classic” hardwoods in handmade cutting boards; Maple, Cherry and Walnut all carry the characteristics of hardness, resilience to scratches/knife-marks, and waterproofness/closed-grain (when treated properly).
Wood Cutting Boards are very much better than plastic, and according to the Food and Nutrition Organization; “Wood is a more durable material, it is a common choice for cutting boards — but not all wood is created equal. Harder woods such as maple, teak and acacia are less prone to damage from knives and absorb less water than softer woods such as cypress.”
We HIGHLY recommend adding a Maintenance Kit with your board purchase! It will include all the materials, and comprehensive directions on how to care for your board. We also offer a Professional Cutting Board Refinishing Service if you choose that. Please note: Cutting Boards should be re-oiled, and waxed at least EVERY 2 months, and they should NEVER be put in the dishwasher. Warranty claims for boards that are placed in a dishwasher will be rejected. Planeta Woodworking reserves the right to reject any board for refinishing or replacing under warranty if any terms, conditions, or directions are not followed correctly.

I just have to say I love these cutting boards! I own 2 of them, 1 from 3 years ago and then I purchased another one within the last year! They are great cutting boards and have a nice rustic look to them! I would highly recommend these to anyone looking for a durable well built board!! The owner was great to talk to about how to clean them and ways to preserve their natural look! I will definitely be buying more!

I own Chapman Manufacturing (we make small screwdriver sets) and Nick has made me hundreds of beautiful wooden cases for our tools. His workmanship is always exquisite. Every piece is a work of art. He’s also very easy to work with if we need to make changes and has a lot of smart ideas. All his work is done on time and professionally.
He’s also made me several cutting boards and they’re not only beautiful but functional. Everyone that comes into my kitchen asks me where I bought it. Also, his boards don’t warp and then slide around the counter like the thin cheapo cutting boards, which can be dangerous especially if you’re rushing to get food on the table!
