Thớt Maple Prep

The 13-inch square is perfect for my countertop without hogging space, and at 3/4-inch thick it stays put while I’m mincing garlic. The maple surface already shows a few knife marks, but that’s just proof it’s getting daily use.

I've been reaching for this board way more than my big heavy one — the 3/4 inch maple is light enough to grab one-handed but still feels solid under the knife. Dicing onions and mincing garlic on it is quick, and cleanup takes ten seconds.

The 13x13 size is perfect for my nightly veggie chopping—big enough for a pile of onions but it still fits next to the sink. Maple surface has held up great after a month of daily use, no deep scratches yet.
