J.K. Adams Professional End-Grain Maple Board, 16×16"

A heavyweight end-grain maple board built for daily knife work. End-grain construction — where the wood blocks face up rather than the long grain — keeps a knife's edge sharp through years of chopping, since the blade slips between the wood fibers instead of cutting across them. The 16×16" footprint gives a generous prep surface, and the 13-pound weight keeps it solidly in place no matter how aggressive the knife work.
