The best way to care for a butcher block is with a combination of Cutting Board Oil and Board Butter. Chopping board oil penetrates deeply into wood fibers, and board butter is a great surface protectant that also gives the board a nice luster. Our cutting board care kits contain the same board butter we've been making for the last 20 years and the same oil that we soak our butcher block in before shipping them to you. Our chopping board oil has a lower viscosity than some on the market, allowing it to penetrate and protect wood fibers better. Our beeswax is sourced from a beekeeper and conservationist in Ohio we've worked with for years. Most beeswax these days is sourced in China, and is often adulterated with large percentages of paraffin and stearin. Ours, on the other hand, is 100% beeswax and sourced exclusively in the U.S. (typically from hives in Ohio, North Dakota, and Idaho).
Includes Board Butter (a mixture of Beeswax and USP Food Safe Mineral Oil in a resealable tub) and Cutting Board Oil (USP Food Safe Mineral Oil in a resealable bottle).
Available in three sizes:
Medium (4 oz Board Butter + 12 oz Cutting Board Oil
Large (8 oz Board Butter + 16 oz Cutting Board Oil)
XL (8 oz Board Butter + 24 oz Cutting Board Oil)
*As a point of reference, an un-oiled 16 X 22 maple butcher block can typically hold 12-14 ounces of cutting board oil. Boardsmith butcher blocks have been oiled prior to shipping, but they still need heavy initial oiling when you receive them.
How to use:
Thoroughly clean, sanitize, and dry the cutting surface of your board. Pour Cutting Board Oil on face of the board an ounce or two at a time until oil can no longer absorb into the board. This process might take a few minutes. Let dry and wipe away any excess.Using a soft cloth apply a quarter-sized dab of Board Butter and rub inFinish by buffing off any excess butter

So we remodel our kitchen and it looks gorgeous and I decide Hey, let me get new Japanese kitchen knives, and while I’m at it, let me get the best cutting board in the world. Because my lovely fiancée will just adore me for getting her these kitchen things!
Yeah. No.
So I ordered the largest maple board that BoardSmith makes, it arrives, and I love it. It’s big and it’s stunning. And my fiancée looks at me and says it’s too big and I don’t like the color.
Insert pregnant pause here. Do I keep the cutting board, or the woman? Cause clearly I can’t keep both.
Ok. So I hit up the company and essentially say I’m sorry, but can I trade this in for something smaller and maybe in maple? And even though their website clearly says they don’t have to accept returns, they do it anyway. I know they hand make these beautiful boards and they probably should not have but they did it without question. So now I have a smaller board made of maple, and it is just beautiful. These are art pieces more than cutting boards, frankly. It remains out on our kitchen counter, not hidden away in a cabinet somewhere.
So top of the market quality? Check. Amazing customer service? Check. If you’re on the fence, buy from these people. You will like what you get.
Great, loved the care guide as well.
I am very happy with my purchase. The board is beautiful and made of high quality wood. The shopping experience was great with helpful videos.
Haven’t had a chance to actually use it yet, but getting it prepped with its first oil treatment so I’ve been able to get a good look at it from all sides. The quality is tremendous.
Beautiful high quality cutting board!!
