They are made of maple wood, which ensures strength and durability. These meat carving boards are available without spikes. A top-of-the-line cutting board that's large enough for any task. Made of gorgeous Solid Wood, this Large End Grain Prep Station is functional and beautiful due to its rich, shimmering colors. Unlike traditionally made boards, end grain construction is less dulling to cutlery because the wood grain direction accommodates cutting instead of resisting it.
