Q: What’s the difference between end grain and edge grain cutting boards?A: End Grain Cutting Boards features the end pieces of wood rails approximately 1-1/2″ x 1-3/4″ that are glued together into a traditional square pattern. During cutting or chopping, the end grain wood fibres absorb the impact of the knife blade, allowing your knife to stay sharper and your board surfaces to stay smoother. Edge Grain Cutting Boards features full- length wood rails approximately 1-3/4″ wide that span the entire length of the board. Edge Grain Cutting Boards features a uniform thickness and true flat cutting surface.
