This 14×20 maple wood cutting board is a great board for many cooking and baking tasks. Whether you’re a professional chef in a fast-paced restaurant setting or a home cook looking for a nicer option for basic prep work, our 2” thick maple cutting board is perfect for you. Its thick and durable design makes it able to withstand daily use and potential fall or water damage for years without needing to be replaced. As long as your board is naturally cleaned regularly, you can expect a lifespan that far surpasses other cheaper wood and plastic cutting boards found at retail stores or online.
Maple is a very bright and clean wood that has tremendous strength as a cutting board. It will remain stable and not tint with use. The most common uses for maple wood are hardwood flooring, kitchen cabinets, countertops, bowling alleys, guitar bodies, gun stocks, car interiors, furniture, and other wood projects such as sculpture, bowl-making, and, of course, cutting boards. This is because maple has a natural luster and beautiful swirling pattern but is also incredibly cost-effective and sustainable.
On the Janka hardness scale, Maple has a rating of 1,450, making it one of the hardest domestic woods on the market. This makes it perfect for cutting boards as it has the strength and shock absorbency needed for daily use. Maple wood also self heals which allows your board to remain sanitary even after years of use.
The grooves made by your chef’s knives in your cutting board can far too often lead to food contamination and food poisoning. However, with a maple wood cutting board, these grooves repair themselves and prevent food particles from ever getting trapped in the board to begin with.
Maple is also very easy to grow, harvest, and use for countless projects. In fact, it serves as an excellent substitute for many less sustainable wood materials currently on the market. This means that your cutting board isn’t just long-lasting and beautiful but eco-friendly and cost-effective as well.
All dimensions are approximate sizes. It is best to work with the natural characteristics of the wood first and the dimensions second.

AWESOME!!! amazing quality! Friendly and personable in dealing with ordering custom made cutting boards. The initial engraving looks fabulous. We are very happy with the time frame. James worked hard to get our gifts shipped by Christmas. I would recommend him and his company to anyone!

I ordered a custom cutting board as an anniversary gift for my partner. The final product was absolutely beautiful. I’ve never seen a cutting board made with such quality and care. They were willing to work within my budget. I’d recommend this anyone looking for a special, signature piece that will last them a lifetime.

Absolutely fantastic job with a cutting board I had made for my boyfriend as a surprise present. It was a difficult project requiring precision as it had to fit into a very specific pull-out slot in a 1950s home.
They very flexible and responsive throughout the entire project. He took each of my requests to heart – even when I requested we cut the board down a little to ensure it was a perfect fit. I couldn’t have been happier with the end result. My boyfriend absolutely loved it and it fit perfectly with the design of his home.
I strongly recommend selecting Mahogany House Woodworks for your next custom wood project – you won’t regret it! Promise!

Ordered two custom boards this year as Christmas presents. They are beautiful! Solid and of the highest quality. They will be treasured for years to come (hopefully!). Thank you for the great service and attention to detail.

What a great experience. I found beautiful wood cutting boards on MHW web site and went to order two of them. The shipping was way off so I called them. The owner James called me back and immediately corrected the problem, took my order over the phone and went to work making my awesome cutting boards. He is a small operation doing big things. It is so nice to do business with a mom and pop shop who go the extra mile for their customers. Big box stores cannot compete with James quality, price and service. Not to mention I have never seen anything as beautiful as what MHW creates.

I ordered a last minute Christmas gift as a custom cutting board for my son who works as a chef in Portland, Oregon. Specific personalized details were added to the piece, it was gift wrapped and sent in record time. Communication and pictures were sent to me to keep me informed about process and status. My son was thrilled with the custom product that arrived in record time in time for the holidays! Thank you for your personalized service.
