How often should I oil my board?

Edge grain and end grain boards are both durable hardwood cutting boards, but they are constructed differently.
Edge grain boards are made by gluing long strips of wood together so the edges of the boards form the surface. This creates a smooth, linear grain pattern. Edge grain boards are very strong, slightly lighter, and typically more affordable while still being excellent for everyday food preparation.
End grain boards are made by turning the wood blocks so the end of the wood fibers faces upward. This creates the checkerboard-style appearance often seen on butcher blocks. Because the knife cuts between the wood fibers rather than across them, end grain boards tend to be more knife-friendly and self-healing, meaning they show fewer visible knife marks over time.
Both types perform very well in the kitchen, but end grain boards are often considered the more "popular" option due to their visual appeal.
