Who are we?

Banning Boards & More is a family owned and operated small business based in Peoria, Arizona.  We offer artisan cutting boards, handcrafted with attention to details like wood grain direction and seamless joinery.  All of our cutting boards are made from locally sourced natural premium hardwoods that are kiln dried to bring the lumber to its most stable condition.   The use of premium natural hardwoods offers unique characteristics producing one-of-a-kind designs.  Banning boards are handmade with food-safe waterproof glue and are finished with food grade mineral oil and very own DB Wood Wax.  DB Wood Wax is a custom mixture of food grade mineral oil, beeswax and carnauba wax.  We appreciate your support!

    End Grain vs Edge Grain Cutting Boards

    End grain cutting boards are created by arranging hardwood strips vertically and stood on end.  Whereas edge grain cutting boards are built by laying strips of hardwood side by side and gluing them together.  The wood fibers will run horizontally with the edge grain.  End grain boards have a self-healing process.  When a knife runs across the board’s surface, its slides between the wood fibers.  The fibers separate then close back up, keeping your knife edge sharper for longer.  The end grain build process is more labor intensive making them more expensive.  Maintaining your end grain cutting board may require more often oiling or wood wax applications to prevent drying out over repeated uses and washings.  Our beautiful end and edge grain cutting boards are both excellent hardwood food prep surfaces that are safe and durable.  Proper care and maintenance will keep your Banning Board in excellent condition for years to come!
