Our Purpleheart cutting board blanks are 1-5/8" thick x 24" long and come in 3 sizes:
3/4"
1"
1-1/4"
This blank has already been kiln dried and dressed on 4 sides ready for a glue up! Combine with our premade domestic or exotic cutting board packs - or put together your own combination with the other 6 wood types we carry!
When freshly cut the heartwood of Purpleheart is a dull grayish/purplish brown. Upon exposure the wood becomes a deeper eggplant purple. With further age and exposure to UV light, the wood becomes a dark brown with a hint of purple. This color-shift can be slowed and minimized by using a UV inhibiting finish on the wood.
The 8/4 Purple Heart was a beautiful cut, no imperfections, cracks or checks. Difficult wood to mill and re-saw due to it's hardness, but that was expected. Will order again.

Almost Perfect
Great board. Perfect for the job. There was a bit of a crack along the grain at one end that might be slightly problematic, but it should do.
