Occasionally we make cutting boards that we call "Frankenboards".
Frankenboard: When making butcher block, the first step is to glue up a large panel. We then cross-cut strips from that panel, turning them on end in sequence and gluing those together to form the final butcher block. We often have extra strips from any given panel. When we have a butcher block formed from strips from more than a single panel, that’s a “Frankenboard.” Nothing wrong with it, it’s just that the look of the grain pattern from one row to the next doesn’t necessarily flow seamlessly.
This board is our standard medium (or "Carolina Cut") size and will make a great "daily driver" in your kitchen. This board was a victim of mistaken identity. One of our shop guys pulled the wrong board for finger grooves and bottom groove. So this one comes with grooves ready to go!
Since this aleady has a bottom groove, we will install feet.
