I recently went through 2 different chopping boards that could not withstand my meat cleaver. After I got this one I've been chopping frozen chicken without a care. The board is very sturdy.

I'm using this cutting board in my van mod. Basically, it's a solid cutting surface that will fold down for storage. I have a minivan and therefore limited space. I used two sliding brackets to give myself a way to attach the cutting board to the cabinet.

When I opened this box my first thought was out loud, and it was "ooh, it's beautiful!" This cutting board is amazing. The sanding job is flawless! When you run your fingers over it, you can't feel even the faintest hint of the wood joints.

This is a really beautiful looking cutting board. Always looking to add items in the kitchen which are both functional and stylish. This cutting board easily fits that bill. Has some good size to it too, so it's not a flimsy surface.

Bali · End grain teak chopping board, 44 × 30 × 3.2 cm
€59,90Why this board
What makes it different
1 / 5
It looks after your knife edges
With end grain the knife goes in between the fibres and the wood closes again. The edge lasts far longer and the board barely marks.
2 / 5
Two faces, two jobs
One side with a juice groove, for meat and anything that runs. The other flat, for serving bread, cheese and charcuterie straight on the table.
3 / 5
From the kitchen to the barbecue
It takes the daily chopping and then goes straight to the table or the garden without looking out of place. The gift that lands with someone who really cooks.
4 / 5
Built to last years
It is polished by hand and treated with certified food-grade mineral oil. A thin coat every two or three months and it will last you many years.
5 / 5
Plantation teak, not felled forest
It comes from FSC-certified Brazilian plantations: every tree cut is replanted. And it's been tested by SGS for food contact.

Frequently asked questions
Can it go in the dishwasher?
No. Solid wood swells and cracks with heat and pressurised water. Wash it by hand with warm water and mild soap, and stand it on edge to dry so both sides drain.
How often should it be oiled?
Every two or three months with normal use, or whenever the wood looks dull and feels rough. Food-grade mineral oil, a thin coat, leave it a few hours and wipe off the excess.
What is the difference between end grain and edge grain?
With end grain the knife slips between the fibres and the wood closes up again: the edge lasts longer and the board shows fewer marks. These boards are thicker and heavier, made for daily cutting. Edge grain boards are thinner and lighter, ideal for serving.
Does it crack or warp over time?
Teak is one of the most stable woods there is for a cutting board: it has its own natural oils and a high density, so it takes in little water and barely moves. What does damage it is water handled badly: soaking it, always washing the same face, or putting it in the dishwasher.
Wash it by hand, stand it on edge to dry and give it a thin coat of mineral oil every two or three months. That way it lasts years without opening up.
Does it pick up smells or stains?
Less than you would think. Teak is dense and barely porous, and with end grain the fibre closes up after the cut, so you do not end up with a knife groove full of food.
Garlic, onion and beetroot can leave a trace. Scrub it off with coarse salt and half a lemon, rinse and stand it up to dry. If it bothers you, keep the juice-groove face for meat and fish and use the flat one for everything else.
Is it too heavy for everyday use?
It weighs 2.5 kg. That weight is exactly what keeps it from sliding while you cut, which is the usual complaint with thin boards. And it still handles well with both hands: you can move it around every day without any trouble.
Which size should I choose?
In end grain teak there are six sizes, from the RIO (30 × 20.5 cm) to the SIDNEY boards (58 × 38 cm). If you are going to leave it on the worktop and you cut meat, the bigger the better. If you are short of space or move it every day, look at the BALI (44 × 30 cm) or the RIO.
When will it arrive?
Order before 1 pm and it leaves our Tarragona warehouse the same day. Delivery takes 48-72 hours to mainland Spain and Portugal, 3 to 6 working days to Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Austria and Luxembourg, and 4 to 6 working days to Poland, Sweden and Ireland. Shipping to these 12 countries is free, with no minimum order.
How does the 60-day return work?
You have 60 days to return it for any reason, on top of the 14 required by law, and it is free: you write to us and we send you the label. It has to come back new, unused and in its packaging.
