Is the Nine Men's Morris board also available for left-handed people?
Sure! The board is available for left- and right-handed people, so it is uncomplicated and easy for everyone (but the board can also be easily turned over).
Do you value sustainability?
The beech wood for your mill board is certified sustainably grown and comes mostly from within a 150km radius of our German supplier - this keeps transport routes short and the carbon footprint low. And our shipping boxes are also made from 100% recycled raw materials, even the adhesive tape is not made from plastic, but from recycled paper. So we are very proud that you get an all-round sustainable product with the mill board.
Where is the cutting board made?
Your millboard is 100% manufactured in small family businesses in Westphalia and Central Europe.
Does the board not slip when you press the food onto it?
To ensure that the mill board stands securely and when pressing the material to be cut
To prevent it from slipping, it stands on four anti-slip rubber feet.

Signs of wear. If you want to return it, these marks
No problem. There are no restrictions on the type or depth
the traces.
What happens to the groove when the cutting board gets wet?
If your mill board gets very wet, for example, because you're cutting a lot of vegetables with a lot of liquid, like tomatoes, the wood will swell slightly. This is its natural characteristic and completely normal. The blade may then sit a little tighter in the groove. However, after drying, this change will reverse, and the blade will return to its normal position. If you find your blade is too tight or too loose, simply contact us, and we'll help you quickly and easily.
Which wood is best for a cutting board?
For a cutting board, it's important that the material is resilient and durable, but not too hard, as otherwise the knives would dull too quickly. Glass, for example, is unsuitable for this. For this reason, we use hard, robust solid wood for the mill board. Another advantage is that it's easy to maintain and can even be sanded if necessary. There are small differences in our materials, which are described in the next question. However, we recommend choosing your mill board primarily based on your personal taste.
How do the different woods differ?
Basically, the mill boards are very similar in their properties, so you should choose yours primarily according to your personal taste. Walnut is slightly lighter than the other woods and always has a very noble and lively grain. Our beech wood has the advantage of being sourced regionally and having short transport routes. The same applies to our oak wood, which is the hardest wood in our range and impresses with the beautiful grain typical of oak.
I actually don't have room in my kitchen for another cutting board.
Microwave, kettle, toaster... Space is often at a premium in the kitchen. That's certainly how it is in the inventor's kitchen. The mill board is deliberately designed to be compact, so it fits in any kitchen and on any dining table. Moreover, its special shape allows it to stand upright, allowing it to be quickly and easily stored anywhere to save space. This elegantly sits out of the way, yet is always within easy reach. Disassembled, it also fits in any drawer—but its advantage lies in the fact that it, along with the knife, is always within easy reach. If you're not sure whether it will fit in your home, you can test your mill board for up to 21 days without hesitation.

The most sophisticated cutting board of its kind
Designed to make cutting noticeably easier for you.
The mill board is no ordinary kitchen board—it's the first cutting board that actively supports you while cutting. Instead of laborious holding, slipping, or uneven cuts, a vertical stop ensures your cutting material remains stable. This allows you to make every cut more safely, precisely, and with less stress—whether it's bread, vegetables, or cold cuts.
1. Soft remains stable
Soft items like fresh bread or ripe tomatoes tend to deform during cutting. The mill board solves precisely this problem: The vertical plate provides stability and prevents slippage. This makes soft items "firm" – and straight, clean slices are achieved effortlessly.
2. Your third hand when cutting
The shield eliminates the need for manual holding – especially for small, slippery, or awkward pieces. Whether it's cheese slices, bread ends, or round vegetables, you work more safely, more relaxed, and with less effort.
3. Straight cuts – completely automatically
The reference surface of the blade helps you keep the knife parallel. This results in clean, even cuts – without readjustment or slanted results. This makes all the difference, especially with larger foods.
A cutting board that thinks for itself
At a compact 34 × 23 cm, the mill board fits in any kitchen and on any table. The knife is magnetically held to the board—always within easy reach, space-saving, and secure. The beveled front edge allows you to easily lift the board with one hand and empty leftovers or cut ingredients directly into a pot or trash can.
Secure grip on any surface
Four rubber feet prevent slipping – even under heavy pressure. This keeps the board where you need it.
Cleaned in seconds
The mill board has no cracks or complicated shapes. Simply wipe with a damp cloth – if necessary, the board can also be disassembled and cleaned individually.
Knife and board – a functional unit
Two powerful neodymium magnets embedded in the wood hold your knife directly to the board. No more searching in a drawer, no more exposed blades on the work surface – everything is safely stored and ready for immediate use.
Design meets function – multiple awards
For its innovative design and well-thought-out everyday usability, the mill board has been awarded the Universal Design Award 2023 twice – by both the expert jury and the consumer jury.
Wood from the region – consciously processed
Each mill board is made in Westphalian factories – from regional solid wood, produced using green electricity, and packaged plastic-free. The wood comes primarily from sustainable, FSC-certified forestry. Short transport routes and fair conditions ensure maximum transparency.
Which variant suits you?
The classic. Bright, timeless, functional. Particularly popular for its value for money.
The noble. Dark, striking wood with a unique grain. Lightweight and particularly high-quality.
The modern variety. Fast-growing, robust, with a clear appearance thanks to the stick-bonded structure.
An eye-catcher. Extremely hard, with high-contrast patterning. Our most durable model.
All variants offer the same functionality – you simply choose the feel and look that suits you and your kitchen.
Easy-care & durable
Simply wipe with a damp cloth and oil occasionally—that's all it takes. The mill board is designed for daily use. And because it's made of solid wood, it can even be sanded and refinished if necessary.
Conclusion:
Anyone who values genuine everyday convenience, high-quality materials, and good design will love the mill board. It combines function and aesthetics – transforming a simple kitchen aid into a true favorite.
