The Beauty of Real Domestic Hardwoods in KHEM Studios Cutting Boards
Share
At KHEM Studios, we pride ourselves on the authenticity of our craftsmanship, and that starts with the materials we choose. When you buy a KHEM Studios cutting board, you’re not getting a look-alike. Our boards are made from genuine domestic hardwoods like walnut, cherry, and maple—never faux finishes or stains made to imitate the look of real wood. This means you’re investing in both quality and authenticity, with a material that carries the unique grain, hue, and natural beauty only true hardwood can offer.
Each of our top-selling boards is designed with both function and artistry in mind, from the wood itself to the details that make each piece a joy to use in the kitchen. Here’s a closer look at what makes our most popular boards—the Whale Bone Large, Mega Whale Bone, and Egg boards—so special.
Whale Bone Large Board: Sophisticated Simplicity
The Whale Bone Large Board is a crowd favorite for good reason. Crafted from rich walnut, maple or cherry hardwood, this board showcases the natural grain of the wood in a way that a stained or faux finish could never achieve. The sleek silhouette of the board, inspired by the graceful curve of a whale bone, is both elegant and functional, providing a generous cutting surface without unnecessary bulk.
One of the standout features of the Whale Bone Large is its versatility. It’s equally at home on your kitchen counter as a robust cutting surface or as a serving piece for cheese and charcuterie. The durability of walnut, maple or cherry hardwood means that this board will withstand years of use and only become more beautiful with age as the natural oils in the wood deepen and mature.
Mega Whale Bone Board: For Serious Prep and Presentation
For those who need even more surface area, the Mega Whale Bone Board is the ultimate upgrade. Crafted from the same premium hardwoods, this board offers ample space for all your food prep needs, from chopping vegetables to slicing a Thanksgiving turkey. Its oversized design gives you the freedom to work without feeling cramped, making it a go-to for professional chefs and home cooks alike.
Despite its size, the Mega Whale Bone Board retains the elegance of the original Whale Bone shape, bringing a sense of luxury to any kitchen. It’s a board that makes a statement and holds up beautifully over time, thanks to the inherent durability of true walnut, maple and cherry wood.
Egg Board: Playful Functionality
For something a bit more whimsical, our Egg Board is a customer favorite. Its unique, oval shape is inspired by—you guessed it—an egg. The rounded design makes it a fun, compact option that’s perfect for smaller prep tasks like slicing fruit or prepping herbs. Available in various domestic hardwoods, the Egg Board offers the same commitment to quality and craftsmanship as our larger boards, with the added benefit of being easy to handle and store.
The Egg Board is a wonderful choice for those who appreciate quality in a more playful package. It’s a go-to for quick prep, individual servings, or even as a decorative piece in your kitchen. And like all our boards, it’s made from solid hardwood that will last for years to come.
Why Choose True Domestic Hardwoods?
Choosing real walnut, cherry, or maple for our boards isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about honoring the natural properties of these incredible woods. Domestic hardwoods are known for their density, durability, and stunning grain patterns. Unlike stained woods or veneers, real hardwoods hold up to knife work, resist warping, and age gracefully.
At KHEM Studios, we believe in quality you can feel, see, and trust. When you invest in one of our cutting boards, you’re getting a piece that’s as authentic as the materials it’s made from. No imitations, no shortcuts—just beautiful, functional design that celebrates the timeless beauty of true domestic hardwood.
Thank you for being part of our journey. Every board we craft is made with care, passion, and a commitment to quality. Whether you’re drawn to the sleek design of the Whale Bone boards or the charming simplicity of the Egg Board, you can trust that you’re getting a product as real and enduring as the hardwood itself.
