About this piece
Transform your kitchen into a culinary art studio with the sturdy "Hannibal" chopping block, also known as a butcher board. Because cooking is a balance of art and craft. Your passion and creativity are already there - with our chopping block we offer you the right tool.
Our chopping block “Hannibal” conveys the feeling of traditional craftsmanship and pure naturalness. It's the perfect alternative to today's automated kitchen gadgets. This powerhouse is for all grill masters and passionate cooks who value solid and robust equipment.
The roots of the chopping block lie in meat processing. A resistant, robust and, above all, heavy base is necessary for cutting large quantities of meat. Its weight is crucial as it prevents the block from slipping during use. There are also rubber feet underneath our »Hannibal« chopping block, which provide additional stability.
Have you ever thought about preparing your own steak from a large piece of meat, marinating it and then grilling it at your next barbecue party? The traditional preparation of natural, unprocessed foods is becoming increasingly popular. And of course our chopping block made of solid walnut wood is not only suitable for meat lovers, but also for vegetarians. It is an indestructible, elegant kitchen accessory that is suitable for chopping and cutting any ingredients.
The production and functionality of the chopping block
Solid walnut wood is ideal for cutting boards. It's hard enough for cutting, but at the same time protects your knife blades and kills germs. The “Hannibal” chopping block is made from selected end-grain wood, which creates a particularly beautiful surface. The material is extremely hard and durable. The wood fibers are only divided by the knife blades and not cut. This means the surface remains attractive over a long period of time.
For the surface treatment we use food-safe wood oil, which protects the wood and gives it its elegant color. Walnut wood has a natural antibacterial effect due to the tannin it contains. This makes it ideal for cutting boards.
Our cubes made of end grain are glued together precisely. This makes the chopping block particularly robust, as the gluing gives the wood a certain flexibility, thereby minimizing deformation and cracking. Of course, we only use food-safe glue. The »Hannibal« chopping block is therefore a companion that you can rely on for decades."
