Joseph Joseph's Folio set is the most practical chopping board solution for most kitchens — colour-coded boards for different food types stored in a folding steel stand that keeps them clean and organised. Dishwasher-safe, non-slip feet, and a system that makes cross-contamination impossible if used correctly. The practical solution for everyday prep.
John Boos has made the finest American wooden cutting boards since 1887 and the maple edge-grain is their most versatile — hard enough to handle daily use without scarring badly, gentle enough on knife edges that you'll notice the difference if you use quality knives, and large enough to handle any prep task without food falling off the edge.
End-grain construction means knife edges hit the wood fibres rather than across them — the board effectively self-heals as the fibres close back together after cutting. The Boos 60cm end-grain is the board used in serious home kitchens and restaurants — it protects your best knives, develops a beautiful patina from use and oiling, and the maple construction will outlast generations of cooking.
