I made a couple of cutting boards for my daughter a few years ago. I told her that if they got scratched up I could sand them down. She spent the last 4 years overseas and brought the boards "home". I've attached a before and after photos. I finally had to skim this one on the planer to get the deep cuts out.
Thanks to this forum for the suggestion of using beeswax/mineral oil mixture the finish looks great and will probably hold up a little longer. I also made them a plain maple board for general use.
