The John Boos Chop-N-Slice 10×5 Inch Maple Cutting Board is the smallest board in the line, a 1-inch-thick edge-grain board sized for the small-format cutting work the larger boards waste counter space on. The 1.4-pound weight makes it easy to grab from a drawer or upper cabinet, and the eased corners feel soft against the hand on hold-and-cut work.
Use it as a citrus and lemon-cutting board next to the bar setup, an herb-chopping board, a cheese-and-cracker serving board, a small breakfast prep board for cutting bagels and apples, a college-dorm or studio-apartment primary cutting board, and any application where the smaller footprint beats the large prep boards. The maple edge-grain construction self-heals from knife marks as well as the larger boards do.
John Boos has been hand-crafting butcher blocks in Effingham, Illinois since 1887 — the company that supplied butcher blocks to the original Chicago meat-packing district. Every Boos board is made from sustainably-sourced Northern hard maple and finished in food-safe Boos Block Cream.
