Who’s The Wurst?
Welcome to The Wurst Woodworker! I’m Kimberly Warr, a woodworker based in New Braunfels, Texas, a town with deep German roots — which inspired the playful spelling of “Wurst” in my business name. I craft every piece by hand with care, creativity, and a touch of humor.
While I’m best known for my natural-edge black walnut cutting boards made from rare, sustainably sourced Comal River walnut, I also create a variety of custom wood pieces perfect for gifting, decorating, and everyday use.
Each item — whether walnut, maple, cedar, oak, or another hardwood — is built to be unique, personal, and long-lasting.
"My black walnut cutting board is absolutely stunning. The craftsmanship and engraving are beautiful, and the wood grain is incredible. You can tell Kimberly puts real heart into her work."
