Medium Butcher Block Cutting Board
Rare woods. Striking contrast. Built by hand.
Hand-cut and assembled by Josh at JK Woodworking in Ada, Michigan, this Medium Butcher Block pairs two of the most visually dramatic hardwoods available into a piece that stops people in their tracks.
Deep, near-black African blackwood — one of the densest and most prized woods in the world — meets the warm, straight grain of redwood in an end-grain butcher block pattern. The result is a bold, high-contrast board with a surface that's naturally self-healing: knife marks close back up over time, so this board gets better the more you use it.
