kquist is on a distinguished road
As a chef I have many wood boards and prefer using bee's wax with mineral oil (in place of straight mineral oil). It is a paste, smells great and isn't as messy as liquid MO. Most higher end kitchen stores carry it. After a while I will have my husband run my boards through the sander or planer to take off the slightest amount of wood which revives the board. I don't like using a wood board for meat or onions/garlic since the smell is difficult to get out. I love my Epicurean cutting boards which are kind to your cutlery and are made from recycle paper/wood. You can throw them in your dishwasher too.
