The Boos Block AB01 is a premium end-grain workstation that transforms any kitchen or prep space into a professional-grade workspace. Crafted by hand in Effingham, Illinois, this iconic piece features a substantial 10-inch thick maple surface that is gentle on knives yet durable enough to withstand years of intensive chopping, dicing, and pounding. Its Northern hard rock maple construction ensures exceptional longevity and resilience, making it an indispensable addition to the modern home cook's arsenal.

Features:

• The butcher block is made from premium Northern Hard Rock Maple, which is harvested and manufactured in the USA.
• It has an end-grain construction, which means the wood fibers are arranged vertically. This helps the surface "self-heal" and is kinder to knife edges.
• The top is a massive 10 inches thick, which helps absorb impact and dampen vibration.
• The block comes with a factory-applied Boos Block® Board Cream with Beeswax, which is a food-safe oil finish.
• It has a 34-inch working height and signature turned "AB" legs. Assembly hardware is included.
• You can choose from nine optional base colors or a natural maple finish to match your décor.
• The block is compatible with CAS03 2-½" commercial-grade locking casters (sold separately).

Features:

• The surface is designed to help keep knives sharper for longer.
• The natural wood fibers close up after cuts, which helps prevent deep scratches and resist the growth of bacteria.
• The distinct checkerboard pattern gives the cutting board a classic, butcher-shop look.
