Let’s Clear This Up...
Cutting on a charcuterie board? I wouldn’t do it.
Yeah, you can... but that doesn’t mean you should.
Most charcuterie boards are made to look good, not take abuse. If you start slicing and dicing on them, you’re probably going to wreck the surface, and kill the whole vibe the board was meant to bring to the table.
Here’s why it matters...
Some boards are made from softwoods like pine or fir. Looks nice. Smells nice. Cuts like butter... and NOT in a good way. These are never meant for knives. You’ll gouge the surface in no time, and those deep cuts can collect food, moisture, and bacteria.
If the board’s made from hardwoods like maple, or walnut, that’s a different story. Maple especially is a top-tier cutting wood... tight-grained, non-porous, and durable.
But even then, how the board is built matters too.
A lot of charcuterie boards are face grain... that flat, wide surface showing off all the beautiful grain patterns. That’s what makes them stand out. But face grain is the weakest for cutting. It’ll mark up fast and doesn’t recover well.
Edge grain is better for cutting on... made from strips glued on edge. It holds up better to knife work.
End grain is the best for cutting on. It’s like cutting into a field of bristles... the knife edge goes in and comes back out with less wear and tear. That’s what the most expensive cutting boards are made from.
Most charcuterie boards? They’re face grain.
Epoxy looks amazing. It fills cracks, adds contrast, and can really make a board pop. And when it’s fully cured, yes, it’s food safe.
But that doesn’t make it cut-safe.
If you chop into epoxy, it can chip or flake. You don’t want that in your food.
Epoxy is perfect for serving boards or accent work around the edges... Just not for the part your knife hits!
If your board has a personal engraving... a name, a handwritten recipe, a message from someone who means something to you... do not cut on that side. Ever.
Cutting over engravings wrecks the design! Keep that side for serving only.
If the engraving is small and tucked into a corner, fine, just don’t cut on it.
You can do whatever you want… but should you? No.
That said, if you’re still feeling compelled to do it (and hey... I’m sure you’ve got your reasons), here’s what you need to know:
If it’s made from a softwood — no, never.
If it’s face grain, especially with live edge — also no.
If it’s had epoxy added to the area you’d be cutting — no again.
If it has a personal engraving on that side — definitely not.
Now… if you really want a board you can cut on and still bring out for guests...
Invest in a beautiful cutting board. One made of hardwood. Use one side for prep, and the other side for serving. It’ll last longer, look great, and do the job right..
Received my board today and it’s beautiful. From the packaging that is filled with warmth when you open the box to the out standing workmanship. The quality of the board is exceptional, even to the personalized engraving. You can feel the creativity, love and heart and soul that Charlene and Jason put into their designs and the passion for what they create.
This board is INCREDIBLE! Charlene handpicked the boards for the wood color and grain that I liked. I was able to select the boards that I liked, along with designs and engravings for the front and back of each board. She sent me pictures of the designs and fonts for approval. I ended up buying 4 boards. I know I will definitely buy from them again. Thank you for such great quality products and fast service!!!
I am thoroughly impressed with my customized cribbage board, which arrived today and far exceeded my expectations. It not only arrived ahead of the anticipated delivery date, but it was also securely packaged, ensuring no damage. Upon unboxing, I was pleased to see the care and attention given to the packaging. The board itself is made from exquisite, solid wood and is even more beautiful than described. The meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail truly make this cribbage board a standout piece. I look forward to many enjoyable years of use. Additionally, I was delighted to learn that a tree was planted with my purchase, adding an admirable eco-friendly touch.
Jason was very thorough and went above and beyond to ensure my order was completed based on a tight deadline. The crib boards are top notch quality craftsmanship!!!
This board is stunning and arrived beautifully packaged. The love for their craft is so obvious in the quality of the board and how it was presented.
