The Classic chopping block collection features butcher blocks with beautiful end grain construction, resulting in the iconic checkerboard wood pattern. These classic blocks are available in both round and square shapes, with thicknesses of 3 or 4 inches.

True to their roots, the Classic Collection chopping blocks are not reversible, but they are ideal for daily cutting, chopping, and food preparation tasks. Since 1887, every genuine John Boos cutting board and butcher block has been proudly made in Effingham, Illinois by skilled craftspeople using time-honored techniques. Today, the USA-made John Boos cutting boards and butcher blocks are used and loved in commercial and home kitchens worldwide.

Generations of culinary professionals have trusted and relied on John Boos products because they are designed to meet the demanding requirements of culinary professionals who expect the highest level of quality and food safety standards. The robust and durable construction of Boos blocks and cutting boards gives the work surface a commercial-grade toughness that protects the sharp edge on fine cutlery.

Often imitated, John Boos and Co. is internationally known for its expertise in crafting American hardwoods into products of beauty, durability, and function. Simple board care can ensure this heirloom, handcrafted board is a favorite in your kitchen for years to come. Each John Boos Board and Block comes with a food-safe natural oil finish that helps protect the wood during transit.

To maintain the board, apply an even coat of John Boos Mystery Oil (NSF approved, sold separately) once a month and allow it to soak in overnight. Repeat this process more often when the board is brand new or if you live in a dry, arid climate. John Boos recommends applying John Boos Board Cream (also sold separately) to seal the top of the wood surface after applying the Mystery Oil.

The John Boos Block WAL-CCB183-R Round Classic End Grain Butcher Block measures 18 inches round and is 3 inches thick. It is made from sustainably sourced, hand-selected solid American Black Walnut Wood, featuring iconic and durable end grain construction. All John Boos Blocks and cutting boards are designed to meet the durability and food safety requirements of culinary professionals. The Classic Collection Chopping Blocks are meant for daily countertop use and storage and are not reversible.

John Boos cutting boards and butcher blocks are the preferred cutting surfaces of top chefs and restaurants around the world. They are safe for fine cutlery, as wooden cutting boards are easier on knives than plastic boards, which can dull them more quickly.
