BUTCHER BLOCK COUNTERTOP ADVANTAGES

End Grain Construction style is considered to be the best surface for cutting, chopping, and direct food preparation.
Knives stay sharp far longer on these surfaces because the edge slips between the fibers rather than slicing across them.
The construction style allows the ability to make a very large table without needing seams, which creates a truly colossal appearance.
