As the largest of all SonderLA boards, the Highland was designed for the dough kneading, pasta making, barbequing, brisket carving aficionado. Highland is an edge grain-constructed board, known for its durability and resistance to moisture. The reversible design makes it easy to use either side for prepping and chopping with a large built-in juice groove to catch runoff from meats and fruits. The thickness of the board allows for stability and the beautifully carved handles provide superior grip. Filled with rich oils, the sustainably sourced teak is naturally resistant to water, staining and with scarring less noticeable than other woods. Teak is hard enough to withstand heavy use, but not so much so that it will hurt your knives' edge.
