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 had to be trimmed so it's just a bit smaller than our normal "Carolina Cut". This is a pretty board and you would not know the strips aren't perfectly alternated. It could really pass as one of our premium boards.
We can install feet, grooves or engraving as well.
