John Boos Countertop Collection Maple Cutting Board 1-1/4"Tx23-3/4"Wx23-3/4"D, -KNEB24S

A Large-Format Square Cutting Board for Serious Countertop Work

This John Boos Countertop Collection cutting board delivers a 23-3/4 by 23-3/4 inch maple work surface with a lip that keeps it anchored to the counter during heavy prep tasks.

Key Features

• 23-3/4 by 23-3/4 inch square surface gives a full spread of workspace for breaking down large cuts, pastry work, or multi-ingredient prep.
• Maple construction provides a dense, close-grained work surface that holds up to repeated knife contact.
• 1-1/4 inch thickness adds rigidity and heft so the board stays put under pressure.
• Countertop lip hooks the board over the counter edge to prevent sliding during use.
• Rectangular form factor positions squarely across a standard countertop run without overhang conflicts.

Where This Board Earns Its Space

A nearly two-foot square work surface changes what is possible on a kitchen counter. This board handles the jobs that outgrow smaller boards: breaking down a whole chicken, rolling out pie dough across a wide pass, or staging multiple vegetables at once without crowding. The countertop lip holds the board in place so force applied at the front edge does not push the board back toward the wall. That makes it practical for tasks that require real downward pressure, like working through root vegetables or segmenting squash.

Maple at This Thickness

Hard maple is a standard benchmark in cutting board materials for good reason. Its tight grain resists deep scoring better than softer woods, which means the surface stays flatter and smoother over time with regular use and maintenance. At 1-1/4 inches thick, this board carries real mass, which dampens movement and adds the kind of stability a thin board cannot match. The Countertop Collection is John Boos's workhorse line, built to stay on the counter and take daily use rather than be stored away between sessions.

Who Reaches for This Board

This is the right board for a cook who preps seriously and wants a permanent station on the counter rather than a board that comes out and goes back into a cabinet. It suits a wide countertop run in a kitchen remodel, a large island with room for a dedicated prep zone, or a cabinet shop fitting out a kitchen display where real-use details matter. At this size, it also works as a pastry board for designers specifying a baking-focused kitchen. The lip format fits standard countertop edges, so it drops into place without additional hardware.
