Walnut, Maple and Mahogany cutting board

Wood is a natural product that will continue to see movement (expansion, contraction) throughout its existence. Cracks, warping, cupping and any other characteristics are deemed a natural occurrence of the wood fibers and cannot be controlled or prevented completely. Proper care (on the user’s part) must be taken to maintain a stable environment - temperature, humidity, and exposure to liquids play a huge part in how the wood reacts to its environment.
