Out of the Woods
When it comes to one of the most essential surfaces in our kitchen, we cut with the grain. This selection of hickory, olive, walnut and maple cutting boards made our list not only because they're handsome but also because chopping on quality wood helps keep blades sharp.
Cut crosswise from one piece of aged Spanish olive wood, this 12-inch board has a smooth but natural surface that displays the original bark. La Tienda, tienda.com.
