## Overview

The John Boos Walnut Wood Cutting Board (18"x12"x1.5") is a premium, reversible edge grain board crafted from sustainably sourced American Black Walnut.

Ideal for professional and home kitchens, it protects knife edges and requires simple oiling care to maintain its heirloom quality.

## Description

Bring home a culinary icon with a classic "R" Board by John Boos. "R" Boards are hearty, heirloom quality boards that measure 1.5 inches thick. Each "R" board features sleek edge grain construction, resulting in a modern linear grain pattern. John Boos products are designed to meet the demanding expectations of commercial kitchens, and exceed the highest level of quality and food safety standards. Each board and block is made from sustainably harvested North American hardwoods, and offers a commercial grade cutting surface that protects the sharp edge on fine cutlery. Often imitated, John Boos and Co. is internationally known for its expertise in crafting American hardwoods into products of beauty, durability and function. Simple board care can ensure this heirloom, handcrafted board is a favorite in your kitchen for years to come. Every John Boos Board and Block comes with a food safe natural oil finish that helps protect the wood during transit. Once a month, apply an even coat of NSF Approved John Boos Mystery Oil (sold separately), and allow it to soak in overnight. Repeat this process more often when the board is brand new and “thirsty,” or if you live in a dry, arid climate. John Boos recommends applying John Boos Board Cream (also sold separately) to seal the top of the wood surface after applying the Mystery Oil. A few quick minutes of regular oil application will ensure your new board is properly seasoned, and ready for work! After use, wash board with warm, soapy water (all wooden cutting boards are not dishwasher safe and should not be soaked in water). Since 1887, every genuine John Boos cutting board and butcher block has been proudly made in Effingham, Illinois by skilled craftspeople using time honored techniques. Today, USA made John Boos cutting boards and butcher blocks are used and loved in commercial and home kitchens worldwide.

Review: Simplemente un excelente producto con una excelente calidad. Recomendado por cualquier chef, independiente el nivel. La base tiene un muy buen tamaño para cortar cualquier tipo de comida.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I see a lot of reviews about cracking after a short period of time period what type of warranty does this product come with?**
A: The only warranty expressed or implied, is a 1-year guarantee against defect in workmanship and material. Thiswarranty doe not apply to damages which may result from neglect, accidental or intentional damage, exposureto extremes in temperature and humidity, and alteration or abuse of the product. Wood products ordered 'unfinished' do not come with a warranty.  You must do as the others have suggested oil it often and you will not have any problems. Its starts to crack once it becomes to dry. So have to oil it regularly but not too often that will also mess the board up.

**Q: does the grain run length wise or vertically, assuming the longest sides of the rectangle are horizontal?**
A: The grain runs length wise and yes the longest sides are horizontal

**Q: Is Walnut the best choice because of the look or does it have other desirable qualities for a cutting board?**
A: Any American hardwood is a good choice for a cutting board. They have innate antimicrobial properties,

**Q: Why did you delete the word "antimicrobial" with a black pen?**
A: Antimicrobial is a function of the treatment or oil that is applied after purchase; not a function of the wood itself.
