This end grain chopping board is particularly gentle on knives, because the grain yields for the blade. Made from high-quality wood offcuts from the production of HORL®3 sharpeners, the board makes sensible use of a valuable resource and is also a real eye-catcher in the kitchen.
We believe that offcuts of the premium wood we use in the manufacture of our sharpeners deserve a second life. That’s why we craft an exclusive end-grain board that continues the story of your HORL®3: the HORL® Board.
The wood we use in our sharpeners experiences a great deal. After years of growing in the forest, evident from its beautiful grain, we dry it for several days, which makes it extremely hard wearing. All this beauty and resilience also applies to the offcuts of walnut and oak from our HORL®3 production – and these are given a new life in the HORL® Board.
Offcuts are produced during the woodturning process to make the grips of our sharpeners. These scraps of wood are first chopped to size with millimetre precision and with elaborate handcraft are carefully glued and pressed together under high pressure. After a period of weeks, this results in a unique kitchen board, which we then seal with oil. Given the proper care the board will retain its qualities for a long life.
The elegant edges and rounded corners give the large-format end grain board an exclusive feeling of lightness. With its beautiful wood grain of walnut or oak, the HORL® Board will become a visual highlight in your kitchen and perfectly complement your HORL®3.
With generous dimensions of 44,5 x 35,7 x 3,9 cm, the HORL® Board can be used for both cutting, and as a work surface for sharpening knives with your HORL® Sharpener. In addition, it can be used to provide an elevated surface for the sharpener to aid in sharpening particularly wide blades..
