The Pro Chef Block is made of 100% solid northern hard rock maple. Made to professional standards, this classic butcher block features the same design used to build chef's blocks in the late 1800s. Standing nearly 3 ft tall on four gently tapered legs, this butcher block is the ideal height for food preparation. It includes a wood knife holder with a blade shield so you can keep frequently used knives within easy reach. You can also add optional locking caster wheels that let you move the butcher block easily and keep it securely in place when positioned. Built to last for generations, this butcher block is a smart choice and worthy investment for the serious chef or culinary enthusiast. For the style-minded cook, the warmth of the Pro Chef Block's solid wood construction and end-grain work surface make a lovely addition to any kitchen.
The Pro Chef Block features a 10-inch thick butcher block of solid hard rock maple wood fused using end grain construction. End-grain construction is a harder, more durable construction that is also easier on knives; during cutting or chopping, the end grain wood fibers absorb the impact of the blade, which keeps knives sharper longer. The malleable and forgiving end grain surface is resistant to nicks and gouges, which prevents bacteria from entering the wood, keeps the board looking new longer and increases its longevity. The work surface is featured with the standard Boos Block Cream Finish with Beeswax, to seal and protect the wood. The Boos block cream penetrates deeply into the grains of the wood, leaving a silky wax barrier to lock moisture in, and allows your board to be used as a cutting surface. This finish can be maintained with John Boos Mystery Oil or Boos Board Cream.
Please note: if you would like caster wheels with your table, please be sure to add them to your order when you make your purchase. This item is made to order. When caster wheels are added to an order at the time of purchase the legs are pre-drilled and cut in production to accept the casters. You will not be able to easily obtain or add caster wheels to your table separately at a later date, so if you think you will want casters with your table, please use the drop down menu above to include them with your order.

John Boos & Co is firmly committed to managing environmental matters as an integral part of their business practice. Some of the steps they take to accomplish their “green” status include manufacturing wood products that emit far less carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, methane and other gases than processing non-wood substitutes; using only formaldehyde free and low emission formaldehyde gluing processes in manufacturing our butcher blocks; and having active recycling programs in place with 95% of all raw materials, scrap, and even their sawdust recycled as fuel to heat their kilns. Boos’ sawdust is also recycled as livestock bedding for their local agricultural needs.
