The John Boos 18×12 maple cutting board is a 18 x 12 x 1.25 inch reversible Northern hard maple cutting board with edge-grain, eased corners, and finger grips — 8 lb mid-size daily board. The wood is harvested from the Great Lakes region, kiln-dried to controlled moisture, and assembled with food-safe adhesive at the Effingham, Illinois plant.
Right product for family-meal cooks, daily-prep kitchens, anyone replacing a worn plastic board with a maple heirloom. John Boos has been the default reference for American butcher blocks for over a century — the brand still supplies professional kitchens, and the home boards share the same construction, hardware, and grain selection.
