I don’t want to be preachy but I’d like to take this opportunity to draw everyone’s attention to the sustainability of rare hardwoods.
I could talk at length about the socioeconomic impact of rare hardwoods as well as the environmental impact, but to keep it short, the wood database has a good article on the sustainability of darkwoods.

Very interesting read - thank you. I wouldn’t want to go the plastic route but it’s well worth keeping all of this in mind.
Looks great man. Purple heart is also a good choice for end grain cutting boards
I thought about it! I liked the idea of the red/black contrast a bit more though. It was also a wedding gift and so Red Heart just sounded good for that
Most beautiful cutting board I’ve ever seen! Would be afraid to cut on it
