Care and Maintenance

• NEVER submerge your cutting board in water for any length of time. Wood is porous and can soak up large amounts of water, which could destroy the board. Instead, clean with a damp, soapy cloth or sponge, rinse, and then immediately dry the board.

• DO NOT put your board in a dishwasher. It is not dishwasher safe, and doing so will result in irreparable damage it the piece.

• DO NOT use any type of vegetable or olive oil. Some oils can turn rancid, which can result in a health hazard or lead to some pretty horrible smells.

• DO use food-grade mineral oil to protect and condition your board. Every fourth or fifth use, or anytime the board develops a dry look, apply food-grade mineral oil by wiping it with a cloth, allowing it to soak in, and wiping away any excess. You do not have to use any kind of special cutting board formula. Any food grade mineral oil from your local drugstore or will do.

Over time, your board will likely get knife marks and other scrapes across the surface. If it does, just pick up a sanding block from your local home improvement store in 220 grit, and sand until they disappear. You can also use an orbital sander. Please remember to use normal safety precautions when sanding. Once you've sanded it back to its original glory, apply food grade mineral oil liberally, let sit for twenty minutes, wipe away the excess, and then repeat an hour later. Two coats should be plenty. You can also add a coat of beeswax, which can be found at your local home improvement store, if you prefer.
