The JK Adams Professional End Grain Walnut Board is a 12" x 12" chopping board. End grain boards are a favorite of chefs because of their ability to keep a knife's edge sharp. The 12"x12" size is a great fit in a small kitchen for all of your chopping, slicing and dicing needs.
Wood is an incredible natural material that expands and contracts with moisture and humidity. Regular regimented care of this product will protect it for years to come.
Handwash with warm, soapy water after each use and dry thoroughly with a towel. Never soak or submerge in water, run in a dishwasher, or use in a microwave. Placing hot pots or pans on your board can result in a lasting burn mark.
Apply JK Adams Mineral Oil and / or Beeswax Wood Conditioner once a week, with a lint free cloth, to all surfaces--including edges and ends--until the finish is established, and at any time the board feels dry.
If at any time the grain of your product becomes raised--causing a rough feeling--a light buffing in the affected area with 200 grit sandpaper will smooth the finish. Reapply JK Adams wood conditioner after this process.
Wood type: Walnut is a softer, more absorbent hardwood that will lighten with exposure to light. Use JK Adams conditioners at any time the product feels dry.
