Acacia Cutting Board (M)
A proper cutting board for proper knives.
Our M-sized Acacia Cutting Board is made from natural acacia wood, seamlessly assembled and FDA certified for food contact, this 35 × 25 × 2.6 cm board combines end-grain construction, a solid 1.35 kg weight and four anti-slip feet for a stable, durable cutting surface that is gentle on sharp blades. Large enough for most jobs in the kitchen, yet compact enough to store away easily.
Why end grain?
End grain means the wood fibres face upwards rather than running horizontally across the cutting surface. When you cut, the knife edge moves between the upright wood fibres rather than repeatedly cutting across them. The fibres have a little natural give, helping reduce deep scoring where food residue and moisture can collect, while also being gentler on the blade.
How to Maintain Your Cutting Board?
To get the most from your cutting board, oil it thoroughly before first use. Allow the oil to soak in for 2 hours, then wipe off any excess. Repeat every 1–2 months, or whenever the wood looks dry. Always ensure the board is clean and completely dry before oiling. Applying oil to damp wood can trap moisture and encourage mould growth.
Use a food-safe, odorless and tasteless mineral oil. Do not use olive oil or other cooking oils, as they can turn rancid and leave a sticky surface.
Why acacia?
Acacia hits the sweet spot: naturally durable and moisture-resistant, yet gentle on a good knife. Softer woods such as pine or birch can develop deeper cuts that trap food and moisture and become harder to clean. Harder materials such as bamboo can be tough on a sharp blade, while trendy metal boards may be highly hygienic but are brutal on a knife’s edge.
Acacia is used in professional kitchens for a reason: durable, moisture-resistant and gentle on a good knife. And, of course, it’s what we use at The Good Loaf. Backed by a 5-year limited warranty.

Care & Maintenance
Our natural wooden products — including cutting boards, knife holders and wooden knife handles — benefit from regular care. Before first use, apply a thin coat of food-grade mineral oil to all exposed wooden surfaces. Periodically re-oil to help protect the wood and maintain its natural appearance. Clean by hand using a damp cloth or mild soapy water and dry thoroughly immediately after cleaning. Never soak wooden products or place them in the dishwasher. For knives, do not leave wooden handles submerged in water. Always dry both the blade and wooden handle thoroughly after use. Knives should also be completely dry before placing them on a magnetic knife holder or into storage.
