Spoken by someone who doesn't know woodworking. Do your research or talk to an experienced woodworker. Wood glue along parallel grains done correctly with the flush edge glue joints can mimic the internal bonding of wood fibers so well that attempting to snap apart two boards edge glued together will cause the wood to break before the joint does.
A solid single slab of wood if it is not large enough will cup and warp. Endgrain boards with the alternate grains glued together negate this action so can be more stable without needing to be very large
For these heavy wooden cutting boards, its recommended to simply wipe it, and to sanitize, use a spray bottle with a vinegar/water solution. These high quality wooden boards are naturally antibacterial so vinegar takes care of it. For a more deep clean, which is only needed maybe once a week or once every other week or so, you can give it a little soapy wash, let it dry, and then use vinegar, some baking soda, and a lemon or so to scrub the surface, wash it off, and let if fully dry. You should also oil it periodically with food safe mineral oil to give it a good seal. There are plenty of youtube videos you can use as a guide as well If you take good care of the board it should last you a really long time!
Teak is hard with high silica and bad for your knife edge retention

Bought this 2 weeks ago so I just submitted a price adjustment. Great quality, VERY HEAVY compared to bamboo cutting boards I'm used to and huge. Love it so far!

Could you please share how is your experience in washing it? It is big and bulky. Not the easiest to handwash. I hate plastic and have almost none in my kitchen except Pyrex and snapware lids. But my cutting boards are plastic because they're easy to throw in the dishwasher and they come out super clean. But I feel awful about the microplastics I'm adding to my family's meals. Thanks and repped you.

It's about 15 lbs, so it can be a bit unwieldy. Biggest cutting board I ever owned. Definitely not for small kitchens.....

So then, frankly, how do you daily wash it when it is so heavy and large? We have a typical large 2 partition sink. But this is still too unwieldy. Thanks and reps.
Edit: We are vegetarians and regularly cook elaborate vegetarian meals across cuisines. So the cutting board gets used a lot.

I just wipe it most of the time. It's too big to rinse it in the sink after every use. I paid $70 for it and just requested a price adjustment. It is well worth it at this price point without a doubt. They go for about $125 on average on Amazon (up to $150)

Thanks for sharing. Does the build of the fluids from the vegetables and fruits not stain the teak? Or reduce its lifespan or something? I have a bamboo one and if I don't wash it promptly, by the end of the day, the stains are hard to clear. Plus is it sanitary to wipe it instead of washing it? It is a genuine question, please don't mind. I've never used a teak wood cutting board so I am curious about these basics. Thanks.

No problem, I haven't noticed any staining thus far, but I have only owned it for a few weeks. I only wipe it if I use it for cutting items like salads or cheeses. After cutting meats, I do rinse it of course.

Thanks. I use a lot of green vegetables, for example, spinach, and also lot of tomatoes, and they stain the board. I use lots of aromatics like garlic, onions, etc. Which brings me to washing them after every cooking session.

Look at Blade Forums and search on cutting boards. There are a lot of knowledgeable people over there about knives and cutting boards.

Look at Shun Hinoki boards.
