Nesmuk XL cutting board with juice groove - natural oak wood

The Nesmuk cutting boards are just as outstanding as their knives. The Nesmuk chopping and cutting board XL measures 57 x 40 cm and is 5 cm thick. The wood used in this version is natural.

For the chopping and cutting boards, which are produced in a small workshop in southern Germany, only oak end-grain wood is used.

• - Oak wood, because this wood is naturally more resistant to bacteria due to its high tannin content.
• - End-grain wood, because cutting into the fiber bundles from the top preserves finely sharpened blades and the wood can even regenerate with good care.
• - Heartwood, the center of the cross-section of the trunk, is the oldest and most valuable part of the tree because the cell growth is completed there and almost no moisture can penetrate.

The individual strips are hand-selected (an absolute novelty) and joined together by wood welding to form a characteristic yet symmetrical, harmonious pattern. The fine surface sanding and the final treatment with natural linseed oil and beeswax make the surface resistant and give the cutting board a silky shine.

The cutting board is equipped with a 1.5 cm wide juice groove, which is only incorporated on one long and one short side. This allows the cut food to be easily wiped off the smooth surface, for example directly onto a plate that fits easily into the extra-wide handle recesses. Screwed rubber feet on the underside ensure a perfect grip. Therefore, the Nesmuk cutting boards stand firmly and slip-resistant on almost any work surface.
