▶ WHICH WOOD SHOULD YOU CHOOSE?
The wood choice is a personal preference, but the different wood choices do yield different results from the laser engraving. In essence, the the lighter the wood color, the more the engraving stands out.
Maple and bamboo are the lightest of our wood choices, which creates a very stark contrast for engraving. Walnut is our darkest wood, which makes the engraving much more subtle. Cherry is somewhere in the middle. More info on our wood selections...
MAPLE: An all-American favorite, with its warm golden color and its mostly straight grain, sugar maple is the state tree of New York, Wisconsin, Vermont and West Virginia. Very versatile, it is used for bowling pins, bowling alley lanes, pool cue shafts, butcher's blocks, baseball bats and is a favorite of American furniture manufacturers. It was even used to make women shoe heels until the turn of the century! Hard maple is also a standard wood for cutting boards because it imparts no taste to food and holds up well. A classic!
CHERRY: Another America’s favorite! "New England Mahogany", as called by early Colonial furniture makers, is a color similar to mahogany that darkens with age. Satiny to the touch, the grain of the cherry tree is very desirable because of its unique ripple figures and reddish brown shades. It's strong, moderately hard and has excellent shock resistance, which makes it a very good option for a cutting board. Early printmakers even used it for their printing blocks! Black cherry trees grow throughout the Midwest to Eastern U.S. So classy and unique!
WALNUT: Walnut trees are predominantly grown in North America, California being the largest purveyor of the trees. Centuries ago, Native Americans would extract oil from the Walnut tree to cook corn and beans. Noble, lustrous, durable, it has an aristocratic looks to it, and its rich dark tones makes the food you’re cutting or serving on it stand out. A pick of choice!
BAMBOO: Did you know that bamboo is actually a type of grass, rather than a wood? The fact that bamboo is so fast-growing makes it a renewable resource and a great choice for the eco-conscious. Bamboo is harder and less porous than traditional wood and will require less maintenance. If you want a sustainable cutting board that will last for years, a bamboo cutting board is the right option for you.
