Butcher block is a style of assembled wood used as heavy duty chopping blocks, table tops, and cutting boards. Butcher blocks have been used extensively for centuries and still are in many European countries. More and more throughout the world many people are starting to use butcher block counters as an option to stone and even laminate countertops. This has created a new industry in the kitchen design arena. 

One of the coolest things about a butcher block is that it can be sanded down and refinished as often as you’d like. Unlike many stone surfaces, it is inexpensive to sand down butcher block to restore a smooth surface. Wood is fully biodegradable when a natural finish is used so it does not contribute harmful chemicals to indoor air quality. Butcher Block in Anoka, Elk River, Custom Cabinets, Custom Butcher Block.
