I own another larchwood cutting board and it’s consistency in the wood selection was much better. Not sure if these boards are factory seconds or if QC isn’t as good on the thinner boards.
Functionally it’s just fine, and still a beautiful board regardless of the imperfections.
This is a quality product all the way around. I like the detail of the rubber feet, for that prevents moisture build up UNDER the board. The sound of cutting on this is absolutely beautiful.
More important than anything for me was the size selections, I was able to find a board that exactly fit my available space, for my old 10" x 15" board was too large for my new kitchen, which is 1/3 the size of what it used to be. That's apartment living for you ;-)
