There is a reason why commercial-use butcher blocks and cutting boards are constructed with end-grain surface...that is the toughest surface available on a given piece of wood. So while it looks wonderful, it is designed and made to be used. The best thing for that nice board is to use it. Then, when it is time, flip it over for a fresh surface. Then, some time down the road, sand it out and start the process all over again. All the while enjoying a beautiful AND functional cutting surface.

Nice work

Beautiful board.. That will be a very very nice addition to someone's kitchen.

it threw me for a second when I first opened the picture... my son made one a while back with almost the same design, but he used different woods in his and it was slightly smaller then yours... He used Goncola Alves, and Cocobolo for his.
