Cutting Board Oil
From $5.99
Available sizes: 2 oz, 8 oz, and 32 oz
Deep, straightforward conditioning for kitchen wood that looks dry, feels tired, or has lost the richness of its grain.
A quality cutting board should improve with years of use, but only if the wood receives the moisture-replenishing care it needs. Oakholm Cutting Board Oil penetrates beneath the surface to condition dry fibers, restore visual depth, and help wood remain more stable through repeated washing and drying.
The easy-spreading formula gives the wood time to absorb what it needs, making routine care forgiving even for someone who has never maintained a cutting board before. It revives pale grain without creating a surface film and wipes back cleanly, leaving the board nourished rather than greasy. Used regularly, it helps preserve the look, feel, and usefulness of the pieces that work hardest in the kitchen.
Why it earns a place in the routine
- Penetrates dry wood instead of sitting as a heavy surface coating.
- Restores depth, color, and contrast to tired-looking grain.
- Helps reduce the drying effects of regular washing and daily use.
- Simple to apply, easy to wipe clean, and suitable for routine maintenance.
Best for: Wood cutting boards, butcher blocks, charcuterie and serving boards, wooden bowls, and kitchen utensils that are maintained with a penetrating oil.
How to use
- Wash the wood as needed and allow it to dry completely.
- Apply the oil generously and spread it evenly over the face, edges, and end grain.
- Allow the wood to absorb the oil, then wipe away everything that remains on the surface. Repeat on especially dry wood as needed.
- Finish with Oakholm Cutting Board Wax when you want a smoother feel and an added layer of surface protection.
Choose your size
2 oz: Ideal for trying the routine, travel, gifting, or caring for a single smaller piece.
8 oz: The practical household size for several boards and regular maintenance.
32 oz: A refill size for large butcher blocks, frequent care, or homes with many wooden kitchen pieces.
Complete the routine: Oil restores conditioning within the wood. Cutting Board Wax follows as the protective finishing step; using both gives the board more complete care than either product alone.
