Why Choose This Blank for Your Cutting Board?

  • Striking natural color – Deep purple that deepens with age and UV exposure
  • Ready to build – Kiln-dried and surfaced, no additional drying needed
  • Exceptionally hard & dense – Resists dents, cuts, and wear in daily kitchen use
  • Low moisture content (6-8%) – Minimizes warping, cracking, or movement after assembly
  • Versatile sizing – Multiple widths and lengths to match your cutting board pattern
  • Food-contact safe – Naturally antimicrobial when finished with mineral oil or board wax

Perfect for Cutting Board Makers

Ideal for end-grain cutting boards, edge-grain butcher blocks, charcuterie boards, knife scales, mallet heads, and small furniture accents.
Strip inlays:
Pair with maple or walnut for striking patterns.

Note: Purpleheart naturally shifts from brown-purple to vibrant violet/purple with exposure to light and air. Use carbide tooling for best results due to high density.
