Teak Cutting Boards

The Essential Station for Precision Carving and Clean Food Prep The Professional Carving Board Model 105 (Medium) is engineered for the heavy-duty demands of a professional kitchen while maintaining the refined aesthetics required for tableside service. Designed with a focus on hygiene and blade longevity, this edge-grain board provides a stable, expansive surface for resting and slicing everything from Sunday roasts to Thanksgiving turkeys. Key Performance Features: Deep-Profile Juice Canal: The precision-milled "drip groove" or juice canal is designed to capture up to several ounces of runoff. This prevents meat juices, oils, and brine from overflowing onto your countertop, keeping your prep station clean and allowing for the easy collection of au jus for gravies. Knife-Friendly Edge-Grain Surface: Crafted from premium hardwoods, the 105 series utilizes an edge-grain construction. This vertical grain orientation is naturally resilient, allowing your knife’s edge to bite slightly into the wood without dulling, preserving the sharpness of high-end Japanese and German cutlery. Medium (M) Professional Sizing: The 105 model offers the "Goldilocks" dimensions for most kitchens—large enough to handle a full brisket or a large poultry bird, yet compact enough to fit into standard prep sinks for easy cleaning. Heavy-Duty Stability: The thickness and density of the Model 105 ensure the board stays planted on the counter during high-pressure carving. It resists warping and sliding, providing a safe, reliable base for precision knife work. Reversible Functionality: While one side features the juice canal for carving, the reverse side is completely flat, doubling as a high-volume prep station for vegetables, herbs, and dough work.

A 15-Pound Professional Foundation for Your Most Critical Edge Work For the serious chef, a cutting board is more than a surface—it is a critical component of the knife's edge geometry. The TeakHaus Professional End Grain Cutting Board (SKU 313) is designed to be the final board you ever buy. At a substantial 15 pounds, this board provides an unyielding, rock-solid foundation that will not slide or shift, even during heavy-duty butchery or rapid-fire mirepoix prep. The Science of End Grain Unlike edge-grain boards where the knife cuts across the wood fibers, the end-grain construction of this TeakHaus board allows the wood fibers to part as the blade enters and then close back up as it is removed. This 'self-healing' property serves two vital functions: it prevents deep, unsightly knife scars that harbor bacteria, and it drastically reduces the friction on your blade's apex. Whether you are using a 64 HRC Japanese laser or a robust German workhorse, this board ensures you spend more time cutting and less time at the sharpening stones. Form, Function, and Sustainability Constructed from FSC-certified sustainable teakwood, this board is naturally rich in silica and essential oils, providing inherent water resistance and durability. One side features a deep juice canal, perfect for resting proteins or carving roasts without the mess, while the reverse side offers a flat, expansive surface for pastry work or vegetable prep. Integrated hand grips ensure that despite its 15-pound heft, the board remains maneuverable for cleaning and maintenance. Pre-treated with a proprietary blend of mineral oil and beeswax, it arrives ready for immediate service in your kitchen. Learn More

The TeakHaus Herringbone is not merely a surface; it is a technical tool designed for chefs who prioritize knife edge longevity. In hands-on testing, the 1.5-inch thickness provides a necessary heft that prevents the board from walking across stainless steel or granite countertops during intensive vegetable dicing or heavy butchery. Unlike standard edge-grain boards, this herringbone end-grain configuration allows the wood fibers to part as the blade enters, then close back up once the pressure is released. This 'self-healing' mechanism significantly reduces visible scoring and prevents the micro-chipping often associated with harder, less forgiving woods like bamboo. The tactile feedback during use is distinct. You will notice a deep, muffled thud rather than a high-pitched click when the blade makes contact. This is due to the natural oils and high silica content inherent to Tectona grandis (Teak), which acts as a built-in lubricant for your steel. For owners of Japanese knives with high Rockwell hardness (60+ HRC), this board is a requisite for maintaining a razor edge. Beyond its technical utility, the herringbone pattern is a functional mosaic of end-grain blocks, oriented to handle humidity fluctuations without the warping common in thinner, longitudinal-grain boards. Whether utilized as a heavy-duty prep station or a thermal-stable serving platter for proteins, the 321 model delivers consistent, professional-grade performance. Learn More

Professional Prep Stability with Sustainable Teak Engineering When professional test kitchens label a tool as "The Last Cutting Board You’ll Ever Need," the metrics are clear: durability, maintenance requirements, and impact on knife geometry. The TeakHaus 16" x 12" Edge Grain Board (SKU 514) is built specifically for the high-moisture environments of professional prep stations. Unlike maple or walnut, teak contains high levels of natural oils and silica, providing an inherent barrier against water absorption and bacteria growth without the need for constant oiling. This 0.75-inch thick edge grain construction provides a rigid, stable surface that resists warping while remaining gentle on high-carbon steel edges. The 16x12 footprint is the industry standard for home kitchen versatility—large enough to handle a full mirepoix for a stockpot, yet compact enough for easy cleaning in standard three-compartment or residential sinks. The integrated juice groove is deep enough to contain runoff from proteins or citrus-heavy produce, preventing cross-contamination across your workstation. Whether you are breaking down poultry or performing high-speed vegetable dicing, the weight and density of this teak board ensure it stays anchored to your countertop. Learn More

Precision Prep on a Professional Scale The TeakHaus 18" x 14" Marine Chopping Board solves the primary conflict in professional and home kitchens: the need for massive prep space versus the reality of limited storage. While most boards of this scale are 1.5 to 2 inches thick—often weighing over 10 pounds—the Marine Board’s 0.75-inch profile offers a lightweight, high-mobility alternative. This makes it the preferred platform for moving from a kitchen island directly to an outdoor grill or carving station. The Superiority of Edge-Grain Teak Handling this board reveals the immediate benefits of Tectona grandis (teak). The edge-grain construction aligns the wood fibers to resist deep scoring while remaining significantly more forgiving on your knife edges than plastic, glass, or hard maple. In our testing with high-carbon Japanese steel, we found that the natural oily resins inherent to teak act as a lubricant for the blade’s edge, reducing the friction that leads to micro-chipping and premature dulling. This resin also creates a natural moisture barrier, ensuring the board resists the warping and bacterial absorption common in low-density wood products. Practical Utility: The Juice Groove and Corner Hole The integrated juice groove is deep enough to manage the runoff from a rested 15lb brisket or a large roast, preventing countertop contamination. The addition of the corner hole allows for easy grasping and vertical hanging, facilitating air-drying—a critical step in preventing mold and maintaining the integrity of the wood fibers over years of heavy use.
