Our End Grain Chopping Boards
woodspark hand crafted end grain chopping boards meet every criterion that describes the best of the best in food boards. End grain is simply standing the wood fibres in an end on orientation on the food board so that your best and sharpest knives do not have to cut across the grain of the wood preserving the keenest edge of your knife retaining sharpness longer.

I had the pleasure of dealing with Lionel who made me an end grain board for a Christmas gift. He was extremely helpful in the process of deciding which grain of wood to pick, to picking out a board once it was completed, even how to take care of your board once in use. Lionel has a fountain of knowledge and knows his craft so so well. These boards make amazing gifts even down to the bespoke packaging once your board is finished is outstanding and you can see the time and effort he puts in to make them truly unique. They are one of a kind boards and his craftsmanship is top notch! Would recommend to ALL.

I really couldn't be happier – it puts a huge smile on my face every time I pass through the kitchen
I just wanted to let you know that the board came packaged beautifully, and is so amazing to see in person. The biggest issue was that it simply looked too beautiful to cut on! But I'm happy to say that after conditioning it overnight as you suggested, I used it to prep dinner tonight and it still looks completely untouched. Thank you for including the wood conditioner, I'll be sure to treat it with love. I'm so, so pleased with the purchase.
